Scarlet Begonias -> Fire On The Mountain
June 18, 1983
Saratoga Performing Arts Center
Tomorrow is the anniversary of this S>F, the success of which, like 10/14/94, relies in part on the audible reaction of the audience. You will feel like you are listening from the parking lot, but wait until Garcia gets the crowd involved during the Scarlet break. At times during the transition and the Fire you may forget that you are listening to an audience recording - I do. The last minute of sound in the Fire is a problem too. But if you like this kind of thing and you're willing to acknowledge that there are a finite number of such things as these anyway... this is a great way to spend tomorrow.
