Dire Wolf
Rollicking Version...Garcia's solo break make this one shine...Happy and upbeat for a song that state's "Don't murder me"

The Music Never Stopped
Beautifully heady mid-section jam. 4:52-5:01 really gets to me for some reason

Scarlet Begonias -> Fire On The Mountain
Another hot carlet Fire from 1978 not as long as some, cool transition and check out Bobby at the beginning of Fire.

Really great, lovely extended intro thx to Jerry. Everyone is on point and is a nice transition from the beautiful Comes a Time that preceeded it
