Pretty version that starts off the run of great Jerry ballads for the night...FOTD. So many roads. High time. SOTM.

Scarlet Begonias -> Fire On The Mountain

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.

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.
