Excellent bridge. The band extends and extends and never loses their way. Very heady version.

I love the jam on this one. The interplay between Jerry and Brent is excellent. This is the start of a real face melt pre-drums.

Providence Civic Center

Great '84 jammin'. Jer stays on the edge of the tracks almost dropping off and the jam goes on and on.

Phil busts in to start out the jam and it must have shook the house. Heavy '84 version.

Just a great great performance of this song. The band is in full effect to end this show.

One More Saturday Night

Knickerbocker Arena

Solid version. Original vocs are strong . Not the first time the boys re-recorded vocals.
Scarlet Begonias -> Fire On The Mountain
Sept. 12, 1981
Greek Theater

Jerry is completely dialed-in to his tone for this Fire. I feel that this may have been the sound he searched for in every Fire. The rest of the band is on as well with contributions abundant throughout. A highly recommended under the radar version.
