This is when I thought the show locked in.

Jerry's just on fire throughout this whole show. They jam the beginning for a while before the first verse at a nice, brisk clip.

Bit slower than the ones I usually groove on, but Jerry's bounce started off a very fine day for me.

Nice shuffle. Jerry and Donna's vocals on this sound great (how many times can you find that?)

Not the best ever, but the live premiere. Listen to the AUD to hear the crowd flip!

Scarlet Begonias -> Fire On The Mountain
March 22, 1990
Copps Coliseum

YMMV, but I disagree. There's a lot of stuff out there, and I find it just as valuable to read what people don't like as what they do. Plus, there's practically no lucid music criticism for this scene (read Relix or JamBase lately?). I like seeing (detailed) reasons why someone doesn't like something, especially something highly rated.

I love it when Jerry boogies.

I'm a big Jerry fan as well, and this version is worth hearing if only for the liquid run at end.
