holy drums! no question the best all over now--a must listen version!!

Scarlet Begonias -> Fire On The Mountain
Excellent bouncy Scarlet but the real star here is a totally insane well jammed out Fire on the Mountain. Wonderful shredder

Touch of Grey
Fantastic opener, Phil is all over it, Great Jerry work and Weir plays the riff he does on the album. Great show opener high energy.

Hell in a Bucket
Smoking set two opener, full of fhigh octane bobby screaming and spitting out the lyrics leads into a hot scarlet->fire. What a way to open a set.

Black Muddy River
Excellent BM River->He's Gone real special moment

Row Jimmy
Nice long version, great Brent backing vocals as usual.

Let It Grow
Nice one, typical of the late 80s.

Pretty Peggy O
Nice first Jerry solo. This song is always good in a set.

When Push Comes to Shove
Not bad, always wondered why this song was shelved.

The Other One
Short but sweet.

He's Gone
Listen to the last 3 minutes of the jam before >Drums. Really unique and one of my favorite Brent solos.

Black Peter
Great harmonies. A real dirge to start, but ends triumphantly.
