Nassau Coliseum

This song was usually played quite well in the 90's. This one is huge at 9 mins with a hot final jam!

Tighten up sequence right into the Jam! One major aspect that makes this DS heady!

This song became one of their best songs since Jer starting reprising the "Be with you'" in 1993. This one is killed too.

You probably have some preconceptions unless someone played it for you without you seeing it on this site. With that being said.... its correct the Scarlet is solid, but not out of the ordinary. The meat is the Fire coming in at 23 minutes. Personally, I love long Fires as it is my favorite song. Jerry's tone and slide sound is unique to this version only and I dig it. The final climatic jam is nothing like have heard from any other Fire as it seems like my head is going to blow up as the climax hits. The crowd cheer is insane and continues into the first verse of LLR. This version is the bomb and top 5 for me. IMHO.
