Jerry's voice is shot, but his tone is DIALED.

Technically Phil & Friends, but this is a nice (only?) acoustic version. Link: https://archive.org/details/1994-09-24.paf.sbd.zelner-vernon

Gets off to a rocky start, but Brent takes a nice solo.

Scarlet Begonias -> Fire On The Mountain
Dec. 27, 1983
Civic Auditorium

Jerry sounds a bit fatigued, and Brent and Bobby sounded like they carried the first part, till Jerry starts tearing it up some. After a great peak in "Scarlet," there is a nice jam out (with some aggressive playing from Bobby!), and I thought this was going someplace quite different, till Phil reins it in and they slide backwards into "Fire." That begins the oddest "Fire" I've yet heard, and at a glacial tempo.

Haha the first two times I tried, it blew my mind. I was not ready. Took a breather and I'm gonna try it again tonight. Deeply heady stuff.
