The Spectrum

Admittedly not a favorite tune for me but this is super crispy - laconic delivery by Weir w/ Jer's picking and tone perfection. Whole show is massive.

Smokes hot just like you say - hard charging and straight ahead.
Chinatown Shuffle
March 23, 1972
Academy of Music

Went back to listen to the ending and you are right on with that WRS noodling hahah very cool catch. This whole stand at the Academy is crazy - they could cull and release this run.
Scarlet Begonias -> Fire On The Mountain
March 18, 1977
Winterland Arena

Interesting - I find it both tentative (the scarlet) and forceful (the fire) -cool +1
