Simply beautiful. A gorgeous version of a gorgeous song. Jerry's solo is particularly powerful.

Entitled "Silver Apples of the Moon" on Infrared Roses - it's a Bruce and Vince duet that beautifully segues into "Dark Star"

The DRUMMERS...holy hell! They help elevate this peppy version. Great guitar work too - a highlight of the first set!

View from the Vault IV. A fantastic standalone "Scarlet" coming out of a hot "Hell in a Bucket."

Both keyboardists are giving it their all in this triumphant version. The perfect tempo, and perfect energy level!

Funky is right. This is a great slice of uptempo Smokey Robinson-esque R&B. Great early version!
Scarlet Begonias -> Fire On The Mountain

The Mosque

It’s this high because people like it. Nothing more complicated than that. Even though I wouldn’t put this version in my top 10, I find this one to be SUPER enjoyable throughout, hence my upvote. You don’t need any more reason to give it a thumbs-up. I’m sure most people here would say the same. That’s the thing about taste…it’s always subjective.

Wrong date. This was played on the 19th, not the 20th. There's a reason it's not listed here.

Again, this song wasn't played on this date. It's from the 19th, not the 20th. Filler on Dave's 35.
The Wheel

Philadelphia Civic Center

Because this song wasn't played on this date - it was played on the 19th, and included as filler on Dave's 35.
