This entire set is pristine Acoustic Dead from 70...Dark Hollow has Grisman sitting in with them adding some gorgeous Mando to the mix. Must hear.

Scarlet Begonias -> Fire On The Mountain
May 8, 1977
Barton Hall - Cornell University

while this one is undoubtedly good, everyone hear needs to hear the nov 6, 77 version....simply stunning and should be much higher on this list. the fire from that show is especially notable
Scarlet Begonias -> Fire On The Mountain
Nov. 6, 1977
Broome County Arena

this one needs to be higher, yes...jerry's ever soft, butterfly-effect runs from scarlet into fire are the best youll ever hear. trust me.
