Seems like this one is going nowhere....band/Jerry sneeks up on you, and all of a sudden you are in the midst of a high octane groovefest!!!!

Epic slow-burning funk. Gets better as it goes, and as Garica gets louder in the mix...one of my favorite stand alones!

A fantasticly jazzed out version, Garica's long slithering solo is the longest to date...

A great version! Scarlet is very good but Fire is where it's at. Really hot playing on this part of the pairing. Indeed an overlooked and underrated show!
