Superb Brent solo, and Bob's all over the lyrics here. Nice and uptempto too!

Totally great version. Buildup in the end jam is more of a slow burn rather than an explosion of energy, but still a fun one.

Definitely agree, Grendel. Love the way the mid solo here is played in a lower octave at the outset, like all versions pre April 77. Think it adds a lot to the gentleness and flow you mention

Underrated. Beautiful mid solo - possibly better than my favorite, 3/18.

Giving this one a vote exclusively based upon how hot the mid solo is. Jerry's build into it never sounded better.
Scarlet Begonias -> Fire On The Mountain

Manor Downs

Jerry makes as though he's gonna start the intro to Fire, then goes back into a high-speed frenzy of notes before Phil drops into the Fire theme. Nice transition. The suite as a whole is solid but not exceptional. Great vid on youtube.
