Scarlet Begonias -> Fire On The Mountain
The very definition of "underrated." Almost lost to time& yet it kills. No flubbed verses, great steady reggae jams;perfect transition. Please try it.

Let It Grow
A stupedous version; they ride what I call the "80's LIG theme" (that 3 note figure Jerry repeats a lot) to very climatic effect!

Tennessee Jed
Bit slower than the ones I usually groove on, but Jerry's bounce started off a very fine day for me.
11
Terrapin Station
Infused with the same reggae/calypso quirkiness from the stellar "S>F" and before.

Althea
Have loved this version for years. Each post verse solo is tasty and the outro rocks. Phis also is heavy on the low B at the end.

Big River
This is a BIG OL RIVER! This whole show is so special, and totally 'under the radar'...Check it out, and hold on tight!!!

They Love Each Other
Surprised this isn't up; this whole show is quite hot and has a very unique, calypso sort of vibe. This TLEO is a great example of that. Check it out.
