Jerry's solo to close this one out is hard-driving and aggressive.

Eyes Of The World
Aug. 6, 1974
Roosevelt Stadium

A kickass version but it can only ever be tied for best--there are just too many great Eyes out there.
Estimated Prophet
May 7, 1977
Boston Garden

Nice tempo (just barely fast) and Jerry's final solo is quite expressive (although it seems cut short prematurely).

Nov. 11, 1973
Winterland Arena

Phenomenal.
Dark Star

Winterland Arena

Very, very satisfying. Sublime is the word. Into a great Eyes.
Eyes Of The World

Dane County Coliseum

Perhaps the all-time best venue for this tune.
