Powerful...like this whole show. Clean and intense like every song this night.

This show is extemely epic and should be top 10 shows to have on deserted island. Oh yeah...smokin' promised land out of the gates.

What could of been...one of the most evil teases that I have ever heard. Pure epicness for 30 seconds...and like Keyser Soze..he's gone.

Another beautiful version from 1972. This song always seems like Pig's swan song. One of the best versions.

Definitely up-vote worthy. They are firing on all cylinders on this one. Jer rips a new one at the end of Rider. Good call, Sleuth!
Scarlet Begonias -> Fire On The Mountain

Great Scarlet>Fire here! Ur right...if DL would have published this one...It would probably be top 5. My beef has always been with the Mosque S/F and Estimated being ranked so high...likely due to it being his first release.

I will give those shows a listen. I know, one should not mention 94 around here...but I respect all the eras with some being more epic than others. With that being said....those 2 versions can hang in any era.

Totally agree with the above...seemed ho-hum, but then Jerry shreds a little.

Good call! Love that short bit of insanity. My unexpected gems are 3/27/94 Dew and 10/14/94 S/F.
