So many great stand-alone Scarlets in '76, but this one, from the Download Series Vol. 4, deserves a mention.

The Music Never Stopped
July 17, 1989
Alpine Valley Music Theatre

If it's on Fallout From the Phil Zone, you can be sure its one of the best versions of that song, at least from the era it was taken from.
The Music Never Stopped
April 24, 1978
Horton Field House - Illinois State University

I think now that it's Dave's PIcks 7, this show will get a lot more attention.
China Cat Sunflower -> I Know You Rider
Aug. 27, 1972
Old Renaissance Faire Grounds

Watching Sunshine Daydream in the movie theater, this version of China/Rider was a revelation.
Cassidy
March 23, 1974
Cow Palace

Also, the only pre-hiatus version. Interesting that they decided not to perform it during the rest of '74.
Jack Straw
Oct. 21, 1971
Auditorium Theatre

Stuff like that is why Robert Hunter stopped working with Bobby LOL.
