Show is proving to be a real hidden gem. Mt St Helens was allegedly erupting nearby for the 3rd time during Fire. Really hot Scarlet and on-point Fire

WOW! Quickly pushed to the top of my list for favorite version ever! Amazing initial jam, then they bring it to a whisper, then - massive peak (17min)

Doesn't get much better than this. Jerry's voice and playing are so emotive. Great version. Some songs are better with a weathered Jerry voice of the late 80's early 90's. Dew is one of them. More fragile beauty and vulnerability than healthy early 70's versions.
