One of, if not THE, best versions of this song they ever performed. Such a mellow vibe yet so full of enigmatic bliss. Beautiful stuff, as usual. Whoever was deaf or dumb enough to give this a thumbs down needs a good hard smack upside the head with Lesh's bass!
True magic when they transition from scarlet to fire at around 7:48-7:58. It's hard to tell the exact moment but try and please comment. Can't believe someone put the thumb down. So many thanks to the Dead for letting people tape these shows. Coolest band ever for letting anyone tape every show. Thanks to whoever recorded this for those of us who were too young and missed them. Peace, goodwill, listen with grins. The Dead will never die as long as we're still listening.
I've always wondered(20yrs now) if you had to cut it or make a determination when Fire really starts, when would it be? I say around 11:41. God Bless the Grateful Dead.
Those three nights in May where off the hook ,well I was happy that my 1st show was Boston,Wr,eyes,wheel,peggy-o...................,Barton and Buffalo,whatever they where doing those 3 spring nights in May of 77 was Wonderful! I still remember how much fun I had in Boston that night,1st of many after that..................
Thanks for this! My first and unfortunately last GD show! Among all the amazing moments during the show, i remember it snowing on our drive back to Delhi, NY!
Everyone's got their favorite Dead moments. For me, between 16 and 17 minutes into this is equivalent to the best sex I've ever had. Full-body eargasm. Garcia was an architect of guitar solos. Phil Lesh is an essential ingredient to Garcia's greatness in this format. The two of them sculpt their jams together like interconnected neurons, part of a single organism.
Over the mountain, over the moon, over the rainbow, coming home soon. GD, you do us like no one has done us before or since. Anyone is welcome to try. Bring it on, sisters and brothers! Bless the soles of your feet and crown of your soul.
right-on; it's something those who have no idea what the dead where about are completely missing. they hear something off a lp version on the radio and get the wrong idea utterly.... as it's said: "there's NOTHING like a Grateful Dead show!"... those was the days!
2-26-77 for starters, show is INCREDIBLE...not that this ISN'T but there is this idea that Cornell 77 is the greatest show all time....not only is it not the greatest show all time it's not even the best show from that year.... 6/9/77 too
KhalDrogo76 my money is in 5/17/77. Naysayers hold on now. The Minglewood, Half Step, pair of Jack's and way way out there Terrapin are all incredible performances. archive.org/details/gd77-05-17.sbd.weiner.18554.sbeok.shnf
i found a site that u can download the entire show it sounds good but el paso sounds like it was recorded in mono very low the other songs sound amazing btw... and from this site u basicaly type a date and you can usualy find "your show" unless its n offical release then you won't find it
@bigleagues - you can still d/l the streaming archive links shhhh just don't tell anyone. d/l the streaming .m3u file - rename it to .txt and you can d/l every song even just the HQ streaming ones. enjoy.
Which ones in 77 are better? I was at New Haven May 5, 1977 and it was great. I welcome your opinion as I'm building up a collection of great shows. Thanks.
Dude, where did you get this recording from? I just downloaded the complete set from Archive.org and it while its complete its not nearly as rich and full sounding as this!
surprise your son with some 1960's GD violent thrashing about in the delirium of beauty/chaos/unexplored musical territory, let him see that they were complete monsters of sonic audacity, way before the 70s songcraft took hold (now do not get me wrong --- I for one will spend hours with Robert Hunter's craft voiced by Jerry, but you gotta give it those early cosmic journey days - they were so FN Different and mean.... YEAH!!!!!! or someone might suggest you enlighten them to plant/fungi
overrated show IMO, but this Scarlet>Fire might be the best version they ever did again IMO...at 15:30 and for the next few minutes Jerry plays some of my favorite guitar licks ever put on tape...RIP!!!!!!!!!!!!!
the entire upper NY tour from 77 was absolutely AWESOME... and i wasn't event alive at the time....

In this song in particular, Donna's voice is the perfect addition
Flawless! How could you not dig that?
My favorite Dead Jam ever. 27 mins of ice cream for the ears.
me too
+Frank Musillami Couldn't have said it better myself.
Thanks for having just what the doc ordered for THIS mother's day J!

i couldnt agree more.... its the perfect transition from any mood to space!
This is considered "one of the best Scarlet/ Fires by many GD fans. 77 was so pure. To find a full recording of this and many more, go to:

Great Bass... Lesh Philling!! hee hee!!
i started to agree with you but it's more about the lead guitar than the piano's overplaying. in my humble opinion

Best. Show. Ever. So f*cking good!

overrated show IMO, but this Scarlet>Fire might be the best version they ever did again IMO...at 15:30 and for the next few minutes Jerry plays some of my favorite guitar licks ever put on tape...RIP!!!!!!!!!!!!!
This fucks heavily
