Nice, over 10 minute version. Its obviously a warm-up to the 77 versions, but this one has some great moments.

Unique LIG here. It is more chill, but well jammed. Its good, just different.

This is an excellent version and definately competes with the May 77 versions. This DP has a lot of good stuff.

A nice 10 minute meaty FOTD. This show needs to be listened too. Maybe not a crazy setlist, but some epic playing.

I know its just a jam, but this DS is well developed and is as good as any of the shorter DS's of the 90's.

So standard. The song got better over time. No vote from me.

This one is one of the best due to its length and how interesting it is. My top 5 Scarlet>Fire's include 10/14/94, 11/1/79, 5/17/77, 2/5/78, and 10/14/83 in no specific order. 10/14/94 made Dick's top too...BTW.

Love this version and the transition into the weight is priceless as everyone thinks they are still doing 1/2 step.
