5 stars to the tapers and Charlie for an excellent job.

i love the bass tone and the overall brightness of their sound during this period... having grown up on 80s GD though, the tempo just seems so sluggish to me; Keith is on autopilot most of these jams and Donna is just awful, very rarely singing in pitch -- if the band is on top of its game it is despite of keith & donna. (sorry for the harsh assessment but my ears don't deceive me.)

guess you had to be there?

really trying to branch out beyond Brent but w/ very few exceptions the rest of it doesn't really ever measure up.
what's a good starting point?

wish there was a way to zero out Donna's sucky vocals, lame.
does anybody honestly think she was a value-add at any time in this band?
i think "from the heart of me" and "france" might be as much as i can stomach from her; "passenger" backups perhaps.

What a wonderful Eyes! I have been listening to it several times over sitting here in my office grading papers. I have no idea what I would to without the Dead Archive each day. Thanks so much!

An excellent offering from the spring of 1977, a period when the band was in sublime form. The highlight to me was the exquisite 10 minute jam out of Estimated that segues into a joyful Eyes intro jam, which clocks 5 minutes even before Jerry sings the first verse. The recording: crisp and effervescent. The band took off at he end of 1974, and came back leaner with a faster tempo and less of the jazzy feel of 1974, yet they never forgot what they were great at.
Thanks Dead, thanks Carlie Miller, thanks Archive!!

A nice little '77 trip here. Thanks for the journey down memory lane.

Best Jack I've heard in recent memory. Great sounding Miller! Eyes is great as well, but still, none but Jack a-Sailor!

Subject: AMAZING!!
I'm giving 5 stars just for the "EYES", alone. This sound is super-crispy-CLEAN. Jerry just rips it up, as he usally does. I have heard some pretty good EYES jams and this one is definately in my top 10. THIS STUFF IS SICK!!!!!

Notes

Notes:
-- All disc changes are seamless
-- I can confirm 100% that this comes from the vault master reel
-- Like other copies, this has the radio bleeding through
-- Bleed through only heard during tuning between some songs
-- Reel flip in The Other One fixed with crossfade
