Goin' Down The Road Feelin' Bad

Smokin' version aside from the cool sequence of GDTRFB>NFA>Bo Diddley>NFA. Def worth a listen.

I really think this a cool version. Jazzed out in the middle. Tight w/o too much wasted rap.

Smokin' promised land. Super tight. Very under-rated show.

Scarlet Begonias -> Fire On The Mountain
Nov. 6, 1977
Broome County Arena

The transition is totally cool out of Scarlet... Phil leads the way, then Bob throws in some licks I have not heard before and then Jer goes and then finally they all make their way to Fire. I definitely think this S/F is in the top half from the year.

Winterland Arena

This starts off an amazing show... overlooked by 11/11. I would recommend highly that everyone listen to this show. Numerous version need upvote such as the Playing, HCS, Eyes, etc to name a few.

Bobs obsession with slide guitar in 78 works here. Great interplay with Garcia. Top notch version. Should be if you are playing in Tennessee, tho.

Agree. Love the tone of the guitar this evening as Jer destroys this Jed. Easily one of the best.
