Really solid version, but the real magic is in the transition into Estimated, silky smooth!

Scarlet Begonias -> Fire On The Mountain
May 5, 1977
New Haven Coliseum

A side from the obvious 5/8/1977, this in my opinion is one of the tightest and interesting versions out there, and it has been my go to for a very long time. I'll never forget the day the tape landed in my hands and after listening to it loudly, I was just floored. May '77 of course is just plain insane and it seems like they were on the verge of perfection and arguably they reached it three nights later.
