Glorious harmonies, tight ensemble playing, and warm, emotive vocals from Jerry. Great version.

Kicks off one of the great 2nd sets of all time - surprised it isn't here. Donna and Jerry belting out the backing vocals is special.

FEEDBACK - not Space proper, but the only place for this symphony of noise closing out one of the best 2nd sets of all time.

The Other One

Winterland Arena

Am I taking crazy pills, but it's not here yet? It's mostly jam, only the first verse, and wildly emotional - could have been the last one ever, too.

Don't miss this treat by selecting only the famous May shows! Bobby/Donna are in rare perfection here. Perfect harmonies and sweet vox.

Play this for anyone who thinks '76 is 'too slow'. They are way up on top of this on and Billy and Mickey just open it up and own it.

Thanks darkstar67! I'll check that out. I love how the Tapers Section just keeps on keeping on. I dig the Tobin Matrix for this show too :https://archive.org/details/gd1976-06-10.matrix.tobin.84985.sbeok.flac16/gd76-06-10d2t07.flac
Eyes Of The World

This moves through phases along the way but gets there in style! Hits brilliant experimental patches and flirts at weirdness (never really getting there) when all at once-blam-o! It lands you in... BIG RIVER?!? What a mind-fuck that must have been for the Heads in attendance. Gotta love them for such spontaneity.

Sorry about the multiple posts. My rig ain't working.

Don't let a scuffy AUD scare you away from this pristine Cassidy. Bobby and Donna are in sweet harmony, and the band has that 'hot mellow' perfection: Not rushing, but scorching earth. Jerry swoops and soars, riding thermals behind that Cadillac like an eagle chasing prey.
