No Garcia Vocals, but he shreds the ending, one of the best late 70's versions.

Franklin's Tower
Oct. 27, 1979
Cape Cod Coliseum

This is GREAT version and it needs more votes, the entire pre-Drums segment of this show is outstanding, if you haven’t heard CAPE COD!! in awhile, give it a listen.
Mississippi Halfstep Uptown Toodeloo
Sept. 1, 1979
Holleder Memorial Stadium

We know ’77 is the bellwether year for amazing Half-Steps, branch out your listening and give this ’79 version a try, a great nomination from LagerandGospel. I regret waiting over 30-years to hear it again, a good SBD is out there and it is a really, really good version, from a show that I didn’t think much of when I attended it, but the tapes don’t lie, give it a listen and vote. The Franklin’s that follows also smokes.
Scarlet Begonias -> Fire On The Mountain
Sept. 5, 1979
Madison Square Garden

Spacey transition jam, and then a very fiery closing Fire jam, worth a listen.
Scarlet Begonias -> Fire On The Mountain
April 23, 1983
New Haven Coliseum

This is an under rated Scarlet>Fire from an under rated tour, everyone is ga ga over the Spring 90' Hamilton Scarlet>Fire, this one is on par with the Dick's Pick Vol. 6 version from Hartford, give it a listen.
