This is the 3rd song of 6 played that usually opens a first set. This is the last Bama for almost 5 years. Smokin version at that!

Have always loved this first set. This is the second of 6 songs that are usually openers. The mid-jam is shredded by Jer and Brent. Awesome version

It sounds as if they are going into Fire at end, but it just doesn't get there. Listen. Agree. Best show of the tour and top 5 for the year!

Soulful came to my mind before I even looked to post.
Scarlet Begonias -> Fire On The Mountain

This is a unique version and very good. I still like Tuscaloosa and Iowa better. 10/14/1994 at 33 mins was best recent one. After more listens, probably not in my top 10. Bob's slide ruins the Fire.

2013 bonus disc. Aren't they all epic??? This version is hot, tho.
