Hardly a classic, but surprisingly not listed despite being on 30 Days 2013

This isn't on here? From this show? Pretty memorable version.

Caps off one of the most ballad-heavy shows in the band's history.

Especially nice and up-tempo following a delicate portion of the show.

Scarlet Begonias -> Fire On The Mountain

Salt Palace

Glad to see this one mentioned again. I've kept it in rotation since I first heard it.
Hell in a Bucket

JFK Stadium

Burnin' Hell
Brown Eyed Women

Cow Palace

This is underrated. Nice, hard-driving BEW.
Scarlet Begonias
April 29, 1977
The Palladium

The Scarlet-Fire on the following evening has a great Fire and a so-so Scarlet. This Scarlet is much better and has an awesome jam out of it.
Eyes Of The World
March 29, 1990
Nassau Coliseum

Agree with you on this, Graverobber. This is certainly a noteworthy Eyes, and the band sounds great with Branford in the mix, but this is a song that peaks for me in the 70's. As always, I appreciate that there's different strokes for different folks, but there's literally dozens of 70s versions I'll turn to first.
