Jer owns this one - a punchy confident swift kick in the balls.

Jer launches like a sidewinder and destorys the room with his final solo. Rubble everywhere.

Franklin's Power - check it and you will see. Plus a sweet serenade from Jer towards the end. SBD/Aud all good.

They take a bite, chew it up and spit it out - room was spining and Jer was grining with the string bending

Scarlet Begonias -> Fire On The Mountain
Dec. 3, 1981
Dane County Coliseum

The first solo in Scarlet reminds me of 4/20/84 he just does not cut loose near as much on this take.... Still pretty damn fine and that hollow effect in Fire is the kill.

In '81 this band was slick.... No one will ever listen to this Ben - but I believe you found one the better Losers out there - it just all comes together here ... this one is mixed so well with Brent's organ adding perfect texture, Phil holding down the bottom and Healy funking with JG's vocals slightly at a point at the end.

Jerry plays the Bolivian Stomp for the Midwest kids - or wicked fast is another way to describe this one.

yes - nice acidic aftertaste on this one here. If you like this show and this JS jam check the Deal set closer - it is really, really, really SHARP in that '83 kind of way.
