Definitely top 5 version. Longer than most. 68 Shrine is still the gold standard, tho.

This ok tune is played as well as it can be at this hot show. Decent sound effects for Bob's voice, too.

Scarlet Begonias -> Fire On The Mountain
July 3, 1978
St. Paul Civic Center Arena

This starts off one of the most enjoyable 2nd sets that I listen too. None of it is best ever, but every tune is so solid and song selection is perfect... repeat Disc 2 in my car all the time.

Memorial Coliseum

Best version if not for 12/19/77.
Dark Star
Sept. 10, 1972
Hollywood Palladium

There really are some sweet melodic DS theme moments in this one. How something like this sits with so few votes, baffles me.

War Memorial

See 12/29/77 for the best.
Friend of the Devil
April 11, 1978
Fox Theatre

Honest... one of the sweetest versions ever played.
