A rare and different tune. Real nice transition into epic Playin-UJB from Go to Nassau...

Stunned this ain't here yet. Next night is a famous one. But this 2nd set opener is strong and rugged. Nice moment at "born to be a bachelor..."

Wow! Can't believe this hasn't made the cut yet. Rips and roars out of poignant China Doll. Almost become a Smokestack... Super strong show!

DeadBase calls it a Dark Star Jam. There is not much of a hint of a Dark Star-ish melody, and the date is debatable. But everyone needs to hear this!!

Cotterell Gym - Colgate University

Interesting and cool 3-way tie for tenth best Eyes here! Still say this is the most powerful, but the other 2 (10/29/77, 5/22/77) are amazing as well. 10/29 will probably pull ahead, has a few more votes since Dave's 33 release (Deservedly! It's absurdly wild!) but this Eyes (Dave's 12, 11/4/77) is still the go to, all time favorite for some of us. Last few minutes are so ridiculous!!! Listen to all 3 again and again and enjoy!!!

Like everything that did not make the cut to DP 3, this shoulda made the cut. And yet, DP 3 is still one of the greatest albums of all time. Again, go figure.....

Right up there with the very best ever. Shoulda made the cut.

Second only to 9/3/77. Shoulda made the cut to DP 3. Amazing.
