This version cooks. Jerry's solos are wonderful and Keith really shines in this take

Immaculate version. Incredible solos and the transition into Playin' is simply beautiful and seamless...

I've never heard another version sound anything like this masterpiece. This is one special take the gang did, pure bliss...

The beginning of this song is pure disco beats. Never heard that until now, what a powerhouse version...

This version is absolutely breath taking, should be near the top of the list..

I'm gonna have to agree with this vote as top notch. In a show I definitely feel is good but not great the vibe of this version is awesome. Broke the tape listening to this version way back when!
Scarlet Begonias -> Fire On The Mountain

Barton Hall - Cornell University

35th anniversary of this legendary show today. Spun the Scarlet>Fire and enjoyed it, not sure if it's #1 though. I personally prefer 05-17-77 better but that's IMO. Beautiful still though 35yrs and counting!!
