Scarlet Begonias -> Fire On The Mountain
May 4, 1977
The Palladium

What a sequence: Estimated, S>F, Terrapin. Yowza. (Lotta energy after 4 nights off). But, this is a night of growth + exploration. Still feelin’ things out, and they’re about to start exploding, but it’s an exploratory evening…

The Spectrum

Jere’s main Scarlet solo is eerily similar to Cornell. He was playing with those notes for a while, as it were. Interesting + young but growing version.

Such a cool + unique version. Who knows where to rank it, cuz I don’t hear top-10, but everyone is enthusiastic + Keith is futuristic. Beautiful…
