Scarlet Begonias -> Fire On The Mountain

Market Square Arena

Bridge jam kills, transition jam is an absolute freight train rolling. Great Scarlet, sticky Fire. Winner all around. A must-hear.

Doesn't get the same love as 11/17/73, but it should.
Scarlet Begonias -> Fire On The Mountain

Oakland Auditorium

Yeah, shameful that this is single-digits. Really like this combo. Bobby's work stands out here, but everyone is in fine form. Transition jam more than satisfying and has its own character. Maybe the deepest sleeper on the board.

No-brainer upvote. Wicked, explosive outro jam that transitions nicely into St. Stephen.

Barton Hall - Cornell University

Agreed that this show is somewhat overrated, but this version gave me a new appreciation for Jimmy, which I never really got into much before. Long and trippy and Jerry's slide is majestic.
