Rocks & roars, fast & sweet, out of deep space & eerie Terrapin, soars into healthy Wharf Rat...

Ebbs, flows & builds! Feels kinda funny to mention after chats of '77 Sugarees and Alaska a week away but this whole show is brilliant!

Terrapin Station
June 13, 1980
Seattle Center Coliseum

Rises from an earthly, eerie place, climbs to a wild, arcane battle. Surreal urgency after ridicous China-Rider-CC....

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

I'll buy that for a dollar! But howzabout the best Eyes-Estimated?? The first one ever was a few nights later, 11/4/77 and it is smoking hot ridiculousness, out of an incredible Playin.' Like this one, 11/4 is a scorching, blistering, raging beauty. Eyes-Estimated was a lot less frequent, but always a fun surprise! Also agree, both these Eyes are greater than the Englishtown version, and that doesn't take away at all from the greatness of Englishtown! Because these two are that good. They stand up very well to the best of 73-74.

Playin' In The Band

Parc des Expositions

All nice calls re Miles and Sly and the Dirty Harry sound. But.... Maybe I'm crazy but.... Somewhere past 12 minutes, there is a very off-kilter Shakedown jam shaping up. In 1974.
