This is the band on form during the Godchaux period of the Dead. The video uploader blurb says that it is "Scarlet Begonias" live in concert at the Capitol Theater in Passaic, NJ April 27th, 1977. It sounds like Barton Hall, Cornell University 8 May 1977 to me, but Garcia's solo is too short.
It's a warm up for the Barton Hall concert version which is over the page.
It flows into "Fire on the Mountain":
There is little quality video from the 1970s. So this is to be welcomed.
Here is the Barton Hall, Cornell University 5 8 77 interpretation: it's tight and inspired.
Barton Hall is widely considered one of the best shows in the Grateful Dead's 30-year career.
