The very definition of "underrated." Almost lost to time& yet it kills. No flubbed verses, great steady reggae jams;perfect transition. Please try it.

Jerry sounds "just like Wolfman Jack" when he growwwlllzzz out the final chorus on "Goodbye Mama & Papa...!" Whole version is aces back to back!

Jerry in especially soulful voice on this completely perfecto version from one of the best shows of '82. If you like 4-6 Spectrum, you'll love this.

My favorite "sandwich" version, this PITB actually begins in the 2nd set as reprise from the previous night! Insane weaving thru UJB/Space/Dew

Goofy stage banter by Bob, then the rippingest, roaringest, best-drummed version I know.

I'm also concerned about this site inevitably listing every version of every song as potentially "heady." I'm not blaming any one poster for that but can we not all agree that once every version or nearly every version of a tune is nominated the whole point of this site--featuring only the BEST versions--of a particular tune, becomes meaningless? The idea is to (i believe) be as objectively critical as you can when nominating a version--explain WHY it's especially good--so that the rest of us don't feel like we're wasting our time giving it a listen. And if you're putting up a version of "Scarlet" where Jerry forgets half the lyrics and mumbles thru the rest and his voice sounds like sandpaper cut up in a blender then you should at least have the decency to point that out in your review (yes even w/the 150 ch. limit.) I get how passionate we all are about this band, but they played over 2,000 concerts and hundreds of versions of many songs. Lots were heady and, guess what--many many many were not.

Freedom...based on your rec gave it a try and was pleasently surprised...'91 is about as far as I'll go these days (w/some cgarces recs for a very few '94 tunes sometimes making it to upvote territory) but Jer's voice actually holds up here and there's a nice flow to this one...it won't rival any of the stellar '76 versions but is better than many cringe worthy 80s versions and is on par w/some of the nice early spring '90 versions, which I was convinced til now was the cut off. Thanks for pointing this out.

The Hunter-Seamons Matrix of this is a revelation...best source i've heard yet and vaults this version way higher as a result. This is a spectacular reading of both tunes with an unbelievable transition. lots of Fire teases before launching into the tune, and a scorched earth riptide of a fire thereafter. 5 votes? Ridiculous.

Like it, don't love it. I think I was expecting something more given all the hype surrounding the pre-release of DaP 15...it's undeniably good but when I compare the main Jerry jam sections in this one with 10/7/77 I'm underwhelmed. Perhaps an unfair comparison but this one doesn't hit those heights or dig as emotionally deep.

A tune that did get better in subsequent versions post-'77 (altho' there are some great ones in '77--see 10/29), peaking IMHO, in 1982. This one's worthy of upvote for that longer jam section and a wild flurry a la Jerry.
