At times pretty, at times a little weird, but somewhere past 8 minutes, it's downright gorgeous...

Hell in a Bucket
Nov. 6, 1987
Henry J Kaiser Convention Center

Explodes out of Scarlet...a very dreamy Scarlet. Weird & unexpected, not the let-down some might expect. Not at all. Bob's a bit scraggly though...

The Other One
May 21, 1977
Lakeland Civic Center

The red-headed step kids of '77 were all these insanely tight-yet-twisted Other Ones, the ones we don't talk about all that much, but each one a force to be reckoned with. This one begins before drums, out of a formidable He's Gone. Into a Comes a Time about as delicate and towering as May 9. Entire show.... Hoooo-Whee!
He's Gone

Lakeland Civic Center

Jam out into drums begins the Other One fiercely and ferociously....
Sugaree

The Sportatorium

Just realized.... Today is the day of the best Sugaree ever, in a month of some of the best of everything ever, especially, maybe.... Sugarees…..
China Cat Sunflower -> I Know You Rider

Scarlet Begonias -> Fire On The Mountain
