Scarlet Begonias -> Fire On The Mountain
Supar intricate, and explorative Scarlet, FOTM is just a smoke show
4
Althea
Jerry messes up the lyrics but makes up for it in big ways during the solo. Someone, I wanna say Phil is using this really cool effect. Check it
3
Beat it on Down The Line
A rollickin' 80's version of the tune. There is a nice video of the performance on YouTube.
3
West L.A. Fadeaway
Struttin' bass-driven from a stellar recording.
4
They Love Each Other
Nice work by Phil and Brent; Jerry flubbing lyrics all night, looking worse for the wear, but pickin' his heart out!

Samson and Delilah
Jerry is extremely charged up on his vocal parts. Hilarious, I laughed my ass off listening to this.
