A Homo erectus-like version but notable for Jerry's solo after the first Rio Grandee chorus.

Awesome early version. Jerry has a great solo at the end.

Jerry impassioned yet subdued singing in that ragged and worn voice is deeply affecting.

Jerry's voice and singing at this time fit this one perfectly.

Is the solo on the album the full thing? Regardless, it's very nice, in that intricate, early-'Tiger' way.

Definitely a really good one.

There were 7 'Dark Star's in '74.

Just cause something is barely noticed by the radar doesn't mean it is optimal to not check it out.
Eyes Of The World

Salt Palace

Currently sits in the top 10 for '73 Eyes and, despite the sense of discovery and energy that Eyes often offered in this year, I'd say is about right. February '73 was a great month for Eyes.
