I usually don't care about this song, but this is a superior take. Highlights are the ripping solo and agreeable vocals throughout.

The reason we all love 1970 and the two set acoustic/electric format. Don't miss the NRPS set from this night either!

Opening of a very famous show. It's like you're in the balcony with the AUD.

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.
