Scarlet Begonias -> Fire On The Mountain

Veterans' Memorial Coliseum

Scarlet starts off slow, but picks up after to first solo to an amazing jam into Fire, which turns into a crazy whoop an' holler

Bird Song

Capitol Theater

I believe it's the 2nd ever, vocals are beautiful and raw, the cut in the recording during the first chorus doesn't bother me a bit

Even though it's not a perfect 77 style soundboard it's awesome. the sound is saturated and rich...sounds like you're there. I'm getting excited (just hit the jam...)

This is definitely the best version of this tune. Bobby is all over the rhythm filler...check out the note right "and he died for a maid" THAT NOTE gets me everytime.

I think this links you to the whole show, it's aud obviously but it's nice as hell.
Hard to Handle

Hollywood Palladium

I mean, this is it. Hard to handle = This song. Pig has got swagger like no other and he tells jerry play yo guitar. I love how earlier in the show bobby tells the recorder to move back and he yells back to bob "Naw This is, It Right here!" and he was right
