Every bit the equal of Cornell. 8/24/80 still has a better solo, but this is 1977 y'all.

Perfect, with some filthy guitar in the outro.

Red Rocks Ampitheatre

1984 audience only standalone Scarlet (touch) at Red Rocks. Great solo, excellent transition.

10 minutes, on YouTube and worth a peek in b/w scarlet>bucket and terrapin.

Out of Scarlet Begonias to open the second set, with some teases of the song in the transition.

Friend of the Devil

Civic Auditorium

Very nice. Bob takes a rare solo in between Brent and Jerry.

I think this is top 10 and the video certainly helps to make that case. It's hard to watch the second solo and say otherwise. If, on the other hand, videos existed of, say 12/28/79 and a bunch of others, we would have a different landscape to be sure.
Eyes Of The World

Alexandra Palace

I like the matrix for this one. The reverb of the AUD makes the dreamy intro even dreamier.

Filthy. I don’t hear fotm or franklins. I just hear the good stuff.

My favorite hour of music: S>F>Est>Eyes. Not a letdown in this one with this seaweed source.
