View from the Vault IV. A fantastic standalone "Scarlet" coming out of a hot "Hell in a Bucket."

Both keyboardists are giving it their all in this triumphant version. The perfect tempo, and perfect energy level!

Not normally a big fan of this song, but Bruce Hornsby on accordion adds a lot of welcome texture to the mix

Pig's harmonica playing and singing is great, and the rest of the band sounds just as good.

Brent is all over this one, and makes it a standout from a very good show.

FANTASTIC! How this one doesn't have more votes is beyond me.

What's even odder is that this excellent version wasn't even listed on this site when the show was announced as an official release. I couldn't believe no one had submitted it before I did!

A bot??? Really? Never thought I’d live to see the day that Heady Version would have that problem. But…here we are, I guess.

…imagine getting THIS upset at other people liking a version that you don’t like. C’mon, man. Cool it.

Nice version from a good show in an underwhelming year. A big highlight of the first set.
