Aug. 21, 1968
Fillmore West

About 3 minutes before Alligator ends, there is a really aggressive run through we bid you goodnight.

Fillmore West

15.5 minutes after Alligator begins, or at the 5:00 mark of the 2nd "Alligator" there is a mountain.

Mountain Jam

Swing Auditorium

It's just one "First there is a mountain, then there is a mountain and then there is" in the CCS>IKYR transition.

The 2nd solo is great. Nothing never heard before, but constructed perfectly.

Scarlet Begonias -> Fire On The Mountain

Glens Falls Civic Center

Thanks for this Sharleena. This one is excellent, better than 6/18/83 for sure, even though it has less than half the votes.
Scarlet Begonias -> Fire On The Mountain
Feb. 3, 1979
Market Square Arena

This is the best SF that I know of for which only an audience recording is available. June 18, 1983 is another good one - and it has a similar number of votes - but it's not in this league. Anyone know of any good AUD only SFs?
Scarlet Begonias -> Fire On The Mountain

The Omni

I listened to the whole sequence, one of my favorites, which in turn goes into the familiar sequence of drums>space>wheel. The Scarlet solo and transition are absolutely worth the time and the Fire is pretty good. You're right, the Fire, Fire, Fire before the outro is some nice late 80s enthusiasm from someone who didn't always have it.

I love it.
The Music Never Stopped
Jan. 10, 1978
Shrine Auditorium

deadhoe69 - I've seen your other posts on the MNS mid jam and I agree that this song is best judged by the spacey section that comes at the end of the lyrics. You are right - this one is good. Try 6/23/84 for another winner in that section.
