Garcia plays around with some nice themes in the Scarlet, and the Fire is crushed. Nice combo here.

Awesome version and Garcia's voice sounds great.

Pigpen sounds awesome in this. He was a really great blues singer, and that fact is exemplified in abundance throughout this great show.

Absolutely charged, Garcia steps on the throttle, and never slows down until he slams the breaks to let Pigpen speak. Straight ripping guitar, and a legendary rap. What more is needed from a Good Lovin', a classic performance, and the prototypical heady version.
Scarlet Begonias -> Fire On The Mountain
Sept. 11, 1982
West Palm Beach Auditorium

Majorly underrated version. Awesome transition and sick jamming.

Great powerful and intense version, the St. Stephen tease is awesome. Pure fire.
