Big Railroad Blues
this one really packs a punch, very funky groove
5
Lazy Lightnin' -> Supplication
seems a little sped up bobby almost groling out the vocals at times, love Brent's organ on this version.

Looks Like Rain
this one really builds in intensity until it hts soaring heights. Truly a magnificent though very early 80's sounding version.

Black Peter
Brents organ really makes this one sound like Grateful Dead church and the way Jerry is signing really makes him sound like he's mourning someone.

I Need A Miracle
Jerry shreds the solo and bobby growls out the vocals. nice juxtaposition to the beautiful BP that preceded it.
4
Bird Song
Some great playing here, shorter and more straightforward, enjoyable overall ha

El Paso
Comes out a wild Big Railroad Blues. Gentle Bobby vocals (flubs them in third verse), while Jerry, Brent, and Phil roll along.
