THis is a real nice late era FOTD. This has a great pace to it. Very well delivered.

Punchy and upbeat much better than you have any right to expect it to be. Part of the new 30 trips box set. Gorgeous remastering of the recordings.

Bobby flubs a line but the power and energy is superb, off the new 30 trips Box set, Which is beautiful by the way.

I actually have notebooks with notes on shows i have been going through the notebooks and transferring to the website and also have been listening to shows. feel free to check this out i find it hot, and exactly like i stated nice combo of bobby and donna and jerry rips the solo, I am new to the sight but not even close to a newbie when it comes to cataloging and detailing versions of songs i find hot. it was not my intention to piss anyone off but to get up some hot songs not on the board, i am not the first to do this as can be seen from the lists just the most recent. Have been listening and note taking for 27 years so i was a little giddy to get my choices out there that werent here yet. I am still gonna keep posting new shit (ill try to do it less frequent)but ill try to comment and expand on some of my comments on why i made some of my choices

Keith is pounding on the keys nicely as well a Godchaux showcase on this version. When they speed it u at the end they take it to insane speeds, wonderful and hot as can be, arguably one the best versions out there.
Scarlet Begonias -> Fire On The Mountain

silly hot and crazy long, brent dominates the scarlet at times, fire builds from to glorious peaks. nice juxtaposition from a quite and beautiful scarlet to a silly jammed out funky fire.
