Simply beautiful. A gorgeous version of a gorgeous song. Jerry's solo is particularly powerful.

Entitled "Silver Apples of the Moon" on Infrared Roses - it's a Bruce and Vince duet that beautifully segues into "Dark Star"

The DRUMMERS...holy hell! They help elevate this peppy version. Great guitar work too - a highlight of the first set!

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!

Scarlet Begonias -> Fire On The Mountain
April 20, 1984
Philadelphia Civic Center

This might be the happiest I've ever been listening to a Scarlet > Fire. Fresh off Dave's Picks 35, this makes the entire album worth it. So joyful and stuffed with positive vibes, particularly during Jerry's soloing.

Cow Palace

If I'm not mistaken, I hear a little bit of the intro to "Here Comes Sunshine" here, particularly in the first section of the outro jam. It's very cool and a nice transition into Samson.
It Must Have Been The Roses

Lindley Meadows, Golden Gate Park

I'm not usually a fan of the Dead's '75 shows, but this one is an all-time best and the highlight of this show.

My favorite Brent version - and maybe my favorite ever!
