A bit quirky and funky but a great mid-section jam. Jerry delivers. Give it some love and votes!

Donna puts in a really strong and beautifull performance on top of Jerry's climatic ending delivery

Surprised this hasn't made the list. Jerry rocks it out at the end of this early version!

Jerry's eager to get the climatic jamming underway, doesn't really give Bobby's final lyrics a chance, but that's a good thing!

Community War Memorial Auditorium

Klaus, the "run and see"/Jerry solo portion is the money section of the song.
Scarlet Begonias -> Fire On The Mountain

Lakeland Civic Center

Definitely an underrated version here. It's all about the Fire. It's so spacey, silky smooth and psychedelic it gives me a buzz just listening to it. Words escape me when describing this. High energy, deliberately paced, never rushed but in total control of the direction. Big payoff begins at 10:45
