I'm not a huge fan of this song after 74, but this version is just exactly perfect. Gave me chills!

Scarlet Begonias -> Fire On The Mountain
Dec. 27, 1977
Winterland Arena

I'm surprised this one isn't listed yet. Although the Fire is only average, this Scarlet is one of the best unsung versions ever.

If you dig 11-6-77, you'll love this. One of the highest-octane versions ever performed. Insanity.

astonishing, otherworldly jamming and interplay on this version, Jerry, Keith, and Bob going absolutely insane. A++

Universal Amphitheatre

Fairly short but very nice version with jazzy Garcia leads and beautiful interplay with Keith.

Absolutely mesmerizing version. The main ten theme is jammed out during the reprise for all it's worth!!!

Rupp Arena

This surprised the hell out of me. A very energetic, yet spacey and jazzy rendition with a reprise jam for the ages. Great stuff!!
