Real nice 1982 Scarlet Fire Brent lays down some cool keys at the beginning of fire. Jerry rips some heavy sounding lines during Fire. Not a happy sounding version but an ominous sounding pairing.

Correct it is only a portion. Stronger than dirt is not an option. so if people are going to list teases and jams of songs an actual portion of the suite sure applies. I also added the word like to the one eyes review. we all know its not exactly STD but pretending that section has not been referred to as such in dead literature for years is incorrect. it was used to describe the Coda which was eventually dropped that sounds a lot like STD. If you notice it has not been listed here though many refer to it as the Stronger than dirt ending. I will gladly take down and relist under stronger than dirt, if that becomes an option, for those versions where that applies. As of now it seems people prefer the segments to the whole thing.

Phil just assaults this tune with a barrage of carpet bombs, not the tightest lyrically but it rocks hard at a fast pace and Phil just blows it the F#(% UP!!!!!

Yes it is honestly thank you for the head's up i had probably listened the silver threads and moved on, it's a song i know i checked out every version but this show from top to bottom is 5 star. I cant get over how expressive Jerry is singing. He always does but this is even more than usual. Brilliant stuff.
