Hot version from a killer first set! Short but heady jam. AUD for full effect.

Short version, but some great MIDI playing. You can hear how deeply influenced Garcia was by saxophonists.

Scarlet Begonias -> Fire On The Mountain
June 19, 1991
Pine Knob

First off, listen to this in context of the whole "Stranger > Space > S > F." Sick jam. I've never really cared about Vince (I'm young), but he's contributing nicely. Nothing compared to Lesh, who seems to have a bone in his teeth, and plays some interesting lines right as the band moves to "Fire."
Victim Or The Crime

I've never really cared about this song, to be honest, but this helped me get it. And the space is unreal.
Cryptical Envelopment

Fillmore East

Is the date right on this? I didn't find anything on the archive...

Rotterdam Civic Hall

Absolutely. One of my new favorite shows. Any others you want to pitch? Our tastes align fairly often.

Dane County Coliseum

And listen to Keith bring the heat at the end! I had to double back to check this out again.
