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.

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.

Zoinks is right. I've been meaning to sing the praises of this version for a while. Might as well pile it on.

This one should be on here. I was blown away the first time I heard it. Nothing floating about this one - it's all muscle.

I'll put the link to mine on this page when I finish. Have you ever been to deadessays.blogspot, Carrion Crow? There's some Phd level stuff there.

I set it up similar to Sharleena - who posted a google sheet of a scarlet fire project while back. There are eight sections to every half step and I've been ranking each section from A+ to C- and then taking an average. I'm also partial to the last three rio grandeo sections, so I weight them all twice as much. There are 19 '77 half-steps, and one is missing from the archive (10/7), so it's not even close to sharleena's project in scope. It's nerd paradise really.

I'm doing one of Sharleena's spreadsheets with the 77 halfsteps. What's your project going to be darkstar67? Dark star? Are you done S>F, Sharleena? Ready to take on Sugaree?
