Shocking omission from this top 1991 show.

Thundering with energy. Jerry torches the ending. Great show.

Straightforward, rockin' version. Not as out there as 8/15 or 12/30, but still great.

Another song that hit its stride in '89. Great work by all.

Scarlet Begonias -> Fire On The Mountain
Dec. 19, 1993
Oakland-Alameda County Coliseum Arena

Agreed, this is the best "Scarlet -> Fire" I've heard from 1992-93, which overall wasn't a strong period for the combo. It's better than the absurdly ranked 9/13/93, though both don't deserve more than 10-15 votes overall.

The way this one is played, the rhythm or whatever, sounds more like a 1970s' "Scarlet," it has that swing, that lilt that 1977-78 versions have. Cool version.

Not bad at all for a song played, what, four times since 1986? Vince does indeed crush it here.
Baba O'Riley > Tomorrow Never Knows

Madison Square Garden

Vince's vocals aside, this is the best version.
