Great version from one of my favourite shows..Donna and Bobby sound great together..
The Wheel

Beacon Theatre

I always love the dreamy intro to the Wheels,reminds me of a simpler time- really good version if a tad short.Donna n Jer harmonise well together and Jerry makes his guitar weep- love it.
Scarlet Begonias -> Fire On The Mountain
Dec. 30, 1979
Oakland Auditorium

I like what Brents doing on the hammond organ here,much prefer this sound to the toy-sounding synth which im not a fan of..Im pleasantly surprised by this combo 79 being a year ive neglected..FOTMs got a nice lazy groove.

Good to hear this song in its infancy and compare it to the monster versions that came later..
