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)

The Weight

RIP Brent. His final lyrics are tear jerking in context
Cumberland Blues
July 17, 1989
Alpine Valley Music Theatre

Brent playing like he’s possessed. His link up with Jerry is positively electric. Crusher of a version
Dark Star
May 7, 1972
Bickershaw Festival

Surprising this one doesn't get more dap, because it is a creamy ride through the cosmos. Far more mellow than some of the angular versions from tour, this one is a relaxing sonic cushion to float through deep space. Love it
Chinatown Shuffle
April 14, 1972
Tivolis Koncertsal

Back again on this one. Keith absolutely CHEWING up the scenery. So chunky on the boards. Choice doesn't begin to describe
U.S. Blues (Wave That Flag)
April 25, 1977
Capitol Theater

Often a plug and play, obligatory closer, but this one is different. Band attacks with insane fervor and energy. Colossal high energy closer to an incredible show.
