I know its only 25 seconds as it goes into the greatest Bertha of all time, but each member plays the riff at some point.

Killer version in this great first set. Beauty of a setlist.

Scarlet Begonias -> Fire On The Mountain
July 3, 1978
St. Paul Civic Center Arena

This starts off one of the most enjoyable 2nd sets that I listen too. None of it is best ever, but every tune is so solid and song selection is perfect... repeat Disc 2 in my car all the time.
Bertha

Memorial Coliseum

Best version if not for 12/19/77.
Dark Star
Sept. 10, 1972
Hollywood Palladium

There really are some sweet melodic DS theme moments in this one. How something like this sits with so few votes, baffles me.
Bertha
May 9, 1977
War Memorial

See 12/29/77 for the best.
Friend of the Devil
April 11, 1978
Fox Theatre

Honest... one of the sweetest versions ever played.
