Absolute DEFINITIVE solo. Probably one of my favorite jerry solos of all time. It comes out fully formed, absolutely inspired and never a wasted note.

i will stand for this version... as far as 77's go. I dont want a long rambling uninspired jam or sloppy nonsense. this is tight, terse, and jerry is clearly in it to win it. plus, last song of 77... c'mon. 10/2 bustout is nowhere as interesting as this. this is the last song of a tremendous year, lets give it some love!

HOW ON GODS GREEN EARTH IS THIS SO LOW? Hands down best scarlet. This is what this song should sound like. Punchy right out the gate, vocals are crisp, pure... first solo is acrobatic, daring, restrained and fun as hell. It has energy to spare, and then launches into a strong exploratory transition... what more can you want?

throwing my hat in this ring. one of, if not strongest scarlet of 77. great tight energy, strong first solo, silky and jammy transition jam, slides nice and smooth right into fire... c'mon
