Overshadowed by the monster second set Playin', this deserves more attention. Tight playing, tons 'o energy, and Phil is massive and funky. Check it!!

Garica's solos are inventive and unique...this version is so tight yet the jams seem to stretch forever!

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!
