A nice late era gem. Jerry's playing is exceptionally tight in this one.

Great version with a fun segue into WDWDITR?

Lyrics are flubbed but that final solo has some hot licks.
Lazy Lightnin' -> Supplication
Dec. 3, 1979
Uptown Theatre

The Supplication is great! Jerry really shreds it.
Scarlet Begonias -> Fire On The Mountain
Dec. 3, 1979
Uptown Theatre

This version from the Dave's Picks vol. 31 barely registers on the list. As said above it's a nice chill listen with some good groove to it. I can easily see why this version gets lost in the realm of the other great ones from '79 though.

This version is near perfect. Both Jerry and Brent have excellent solos and the band is melding quite well.
