Very crisp, smooth version. Crack open a cold one and tap your toes to this one.

Love this one. Spunky Jerry with a quirky, inventive solo and nice playing from Bruce as well.

As this show's biggest fan, I'm aghast I didn't post this lovely version. Jerry at his most charming. Bruce is in damn good form as well.

Jerry's solo is really good. Sharp tone and strong playing. Phil is also on fire.

What was with the Steely Dan ripoffs (this, Way to Go Home, Samba in the Rain)?
Scarlet Begonias -> Fire On The Mountain

Autzen Stadium, U. of Oregon

"Scarlet" is a throwaway. On "Fire," you can tell Jerry is lucid, but in a 'I'm trying my damndest to find the X factor' way, without ever actually reaching it. The drummers carry this one.

Choice version. Really lovely all around.

Sounds like they're gonna go into "Crazy Fingers" at the end.
