6/20/74 - Atlanta, GA **

A pretty excellent first set. Jerry is ripping it up tonight. A rocking US Blues and BIODTL opener with an excellent BE Women close behind them. Jack Straw and Scarlet Begonias are both on FIRE though and truly rule. Excellent first set overall. 

Surprise, surprise we get a rare To Lay Me Down that is EXCELLENT. Country balladry at it's absolute finest! Set one ends with a nothing-special China>Rider and Around. 

Set two is where the real fun is tonight. We get a CLASSIC sequence of Truckin>Eyes>SLIPKNOT>China>Doll. The Truckin is EXPLOSIVE!!! 

Truckin descends into the bowels of Space hell. It's one of the best Space's ever - it sounds like Miles Davis!!! Somehow, a phoenix rises from the destruction in the form of one of the best Eyes you have ever heard! AWESOME!. Not only that, but it eventually leads into a jam with Jerry ripping the Slipknot riff! 

SEROUSLY THOUGH, THIS 21-MINUTE EYES IS FREAKING AMAZING!!! HOLY SHIT THIS IS THE GREATEST EYES EVER PLAYED. 

This goes into a gorgeously medieval China Doll. The show then closes with a roaring OMSN. Overall, set one has some big highlights, but holy shit that Eyes in set two! :D :D :D
