I am a sucker for this show, but you can just tell that they were on this evening when even the queen jane is energized.

Up-beat version here with cool groove to it. Jerry is lyrically strong. He nails the solos. Definately a heady 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!
The Other One

Fillmore East

Best O1 of all time.

Soulful came to my mind before I even looked to post.
Scarlet Begonias -> Fire On The Mountain
April 24, 1978
Horton Field House - Illinois State University

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.
