Drums -> Space

Alpine Valley Music Theatre

Billy and Mickey play together like they were a big octopus on this one. 'The Wheel' comes rolling nicely out of 'Space'. Altogether, a G-rated D>P.

An '82 vintage Playin' sandwich that finds the boys playin' in fine form. DP 32.

Jerry really belts this one out. All of the attention to detail that you'd expect in a version from this era plus a good bridge solo.

An enjoyable listen, but most notable, I'd say, for an excellent little peak that rises up like a volcano towards the end of the jam.

They Love Each Other

Boston Music Hall

A good, light and airy version that shows quite well what this song was up to near the end of its first year in the rotation.

Eyes Of The World

Omaha Civic Auditorium

One of the all-time great 'EP'>'Eyes' transitions. Tablet double-post.

As far as Jerry's soloing in between the verses goes (--on the merit of that and the intro is what methinks makes or breaks a great Eyes--), that featured here, sure as cramps after disagreeable food, is good.

Grossly underrated (6 votes? C'mon!).

Like good poetry, quickly and efficiently says and does a lot. Hot show.
