71 is a great time for NFA, and Phil is all over this.

Eyes Of The World
Oct. 29, 1977
Evans Field House, Northern Illinois University

Not understanding the hype on this one, stagnant in post verse solos at points, and this song was always suited better with one drummer. This eyes takes forever to get that magic that the best Eyes have fluidly throughout.

Absolutely ripping, cool stuff from Keith in the outro jam. Jerry is firing!

Tender, Jerry’s playing sounds like doves in a dream. The prettiest version.
Scarlet Begonias -> Fire On The Mountain

St. Paul Civic Center Arena

Bill is drumming like he did in 74, has a real swingy funk to it. Phil and Jer bring the house down for the Fire finale and the band is inspired the whole time. Better than Tuscaloosa and just behind Cornell for best of May 77.

What’s wrong with the jamming? I actually relisten to this one often because of its unique approach and jams.
