Scarlet Begonias -> Fire On The Mountain
Oct. 2, 1977
Paramount Theatre

A+ version. As good as anything from spring 77 or any other era, for that matter. Phil is a monster on this. And the energy never sags, just 20 plus minutes of the good stuff.

Community War Memorial Auditorium

What a great back-to-back run with the tremendous Colgate version the night before. Love the prelude segments as well.

Capitol Theater

Really, really, REALLY good. Another April version that is superior to many (most) in May . Just a straightforward, smoking 20 minutes that hits the spot every time.
Scarlet Begonias -> Fire On The Mountain

St. Paul Civic Center Arena

Multiple listens have convinced me that this is a lot better than I originally thought. In fact, it's one of the better May 77 versions, with a particularly good Scarlet.
Scarlet Begonias -> Fire On The Mountain

Field House - Seneca College

Nice, snappy version. Compare this to the sludgy version at Binghamton four days later. Not sure how this is ranked lower. Anyway, the Scarlet rolls and while I would have liked a couple more minutes on the Fire, it still delivers the goods. Not as monumental as 10/2, but a worthy representation of Fall 77.
