Jerry's having a great night, and check our Brent in the segue to Eyes!

Keith (and everybody) is so on point in this twangy humdinger.

It's a great little tune when they play it like they did in summer '73.

Damn!! Sharp playing to match the high energy of the first California Help>Slip! in six years. Phil's thumping away like it's '77. Brent sounds like he's been playing H>S for years -- and I, for one, really love the marimba patch, which makes an appearance. I'm enjoying the Schley AUD.

One of the last versions in A? It was transposed to C at some point during October ’77, never to return to its original key. Anyway, I always liked it better in A. Well-played version, too.

The Mosque

Almost too perfect, at least till a small Jerry slip-up at the end. Heavenly.
Scarlet Begonias -> Fire On The Mountain
April 16, 1978
Huntington Civic Center

Impressive sense of detail throughout, plus all the big Technicolor moments you expect from spring ’78 really deliver here.

Caps a post-drums sequence that the band rocks like they really mean it. Great stuff.
