Just insane playing on this one...cocaine jazz!!!

Great stand alone Scarlet before it found it's life partner in fire. Memorable show, surprising not to see it here.
14
Garica's solos are inventive and unique...this version is so tight yet the jams seem to stretch forever!

How is this not listed? Perfection!!

Fantastic 15+ minutes of standa-lone Scarlet featuring a very Phil-front bass section post-lyrics. Final jam section gets real jazzy, too.

Morphs out of Sugar Mag, skips the "Aint nothin' wrong" verse and gets right to the solo; clean vid/ fun times

One of the best stand-alone versions IMO, this one gets quite extended for such an early version, with a jam that flows and peaks.

BOUNCY

The notes from Garcia's solo bounce around that centuries old hall like pinballs shot from cannon
13
Quite interesting jamming throughout!

Real nice stand alone Phil is playing his lines with an extra bit of flair, Jerry is crisp vocally and with the ax, fantastic stand alone Scarlet
12
Perhaps not the best, but has great psychedelic dripping at the end

Scarlet scrambled eggs deconstructed and elemental. Fun and Jerry is on fire, but we can't say 'flawless'. Chaotic fun. Band's just warming up....

Tight version; jam has bounce, pizzaz, and energy spilling all over the place...these '74 Scarlets are a breed all their own!

Very tight, uptempo and deeply grooving. Check out Seamons' matrix for right tape speed. Even Donna's contributino is solid on this one.
