I don't know what it is about this version...it has vocal miscues, but is just epic at an epic run.

A similar version to most from May 77 with some exceptions. Not sure why the next night at same venue is ranked so much higher.

If all the others are on here from May, this one shuldn't be forgotten. However, most are tough to differentiate from May 77.

So standard. The song got better over time. No vote from me.
Scarlet Begonias -> Fire On The Mountain

Nassau Coliseum

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.
