Best Brent solo I've ever heard on this tune. Jerry follows up in style.

Great solo with brilliant Brent accents, and then burning coda. Check out what Jerry plays at 6:06. Listen to the Bob Morris aud.

The interplay between Jerry and Bobby in the jam is fantastic
Scarlet Begonias -> Fire On The Mountain

Great Scarlet solo

Sorry to get technical, but the five notes Jerry plays in the second phrase of the solo are the sort of thing that kill me
Lazy Lightnin' -> Supplication
Oct. 13, 1980
Warfield Theater

LL isn't great but Supplication is burning, raging hot. Funny how they would do that. Bobby's playing is awesome. Also needs to be noted that Brent's organ playing is perfect for these tunes.

They take it way out and everyone is killing it. Specially Bobby. And Phil. And Jerry. And Keith. And Billy.
