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.

I hadn't listened to this show in a while, but darkstar67 put it back on my radar a couple of weeks ago and I finally listened today during an epic August jog. (Can't call it running - I'm moving too slow.) This one will stack up with whatever golden era of Other One shines most brightly in your kaleidoscope. The entrance out of drums is strong and, of course, the solo Jerry Close Encounters bit is classic stuff. I believe that the playing gets better as the song goes along - and for me the strongest section is the conversation that Keith and Jerry have in the minutes between the verse where Bobby hops on the bus and Close Encounters. If it's possible, I suggest that you find a copy with gapless playback. Henrikson put one up on the deadpod a few years back: http://deadshow.blogspot.com/2014/01/dead-showpodcast-for-13114.html

This is great.

Something's not right when solo 2 starts and Jerry is inaudible for a significant period of time. Make it to 6 minute mark and you'll hear him try to make up for it and, of course, that's great - but not worth a vote.

11/30>11/28>11/26.

There is a massive mid jam and then they wind up in the ether. The last minute before Eyes could easily be a Scarlet transition.
