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

Franklin's Tower
Dec. 4, 1979
Uptown Theater

Jam out of Franklin's is really sweet. Surprised it wasn't included on the Fall '79 Road Trips, but now it's filler material on the latest Dave's Picks so it sounds as good as can be.
Scarlet Begonias -> Fire On The Mountain
Dec. 3, 1979
Uptown Theatre

Oops, too bad they had to do an audience patch just when "Fire On the Mountain" was getting going.

Uptown Theatre

Probably an example of something much better to listen to on a tape than at the actual show, especially since most people there wouldn't have known the song.
The Music Never Stopped
Dec. 3, 1979
Uptown Theatre

Huge finish... guessing this version will get more upvotes thanks to the release of Dave's Picks 31.
All New Minglewood Blues

"...those Disney minnies start lookin' good..."
