Surprising encore (only time) and absolutely ripping!

A very slow and thoughtful rendition; Jerry's singing is extraordinary.

Extremely well executed. Birdsong doesn't get much better than this.
Scarlet Begonias -> Fire On The Mountain
Feb. 5, 1978
Uni Dome, U of Northern Iowa

Tight, funky Scarlet with the rhythm devils doing double time. Jerry's solo smokes, kicking the band into overdrive. Donna's back-up vocals are mediocre. Nice, meandering transition with a great build-up before dropping into a funky Fire with a great groove. Jerry's vocals break through an exceptionally long intro with some lyrical missteps unfortunately. Overall a very enjoyable 28min. Scarlet>Fire with nice, extended jams.

Fantastic version. Tight, funky and Jerry's vocals are superb.

Most excellent start to finish. Jerry's guitar solos are fire. Goes into Hey Jude with Brent carrying over DMF making for a very enjoyable hybrid.
