Scarlet Begonias -> Fire On The Mountain
Jerry rips this show and kills it on the Scarlet Fire. Playing the Wolf with strap on midi at these gigs.

Bird Song
Super jazzy
4
Franklin's Tower
Great show!
3
And We Bid You Goodnight
Head spun when they whipped this one out..1st and only time for me.
2
Ship of Fools
This one of the most underrated shows of their best year. This is a gorgeous "SOF" with a gold standard Jerry solo.
3
Ramble On Rose
1989 was a banner year for this song. Brent is on fire and Jerry is, well, Jerry. Killer version.
2
Man Smart, Woman Smarter
Another song that hit its stride in '89. Great work by all.
3
The Other One
Straightforward, rockin' version. Not as out there as 8/15 or 12/30, but still great.
3
Wharf Rat
Haunting.
1
Turn On Your Love Light
Thundering with energy. Jerry torches the ending. Great show.
2
Samson and Delilah
This one scorches, smokes, smacks, spanks, slaps, slams, and every other verb that starts with "S"!!!!
