Punchy with some heat. Pigs tone on the pipe organ(?) or electric piano makes this special too. Source:CM

Bob's slide work is CLEAN and on point and Jerry is in a frisky mood this night. Brent's B3 is hummin' - this version peels paint.

The Jerry Space is on the CM soundcheck. If you mistakenly listen to Seastones you are hearing the Devil's transmissions. Go ahead see for yourself.

See 11/22/72 for an even better take in the same vein.
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.
