You might think it a throw-away song, but they just burn it up so ferociously that you know they took it seriously....

Badass. Jer's right on top of it and the band is shitkickingly in your face.

Long journey. Jer moves out of the nebulae toward HCS around 10:50, but the cosmos moved into Playin' instead. Epic indeed.

Nice steady heady growing rocker on this.

The pace, throb, and intensity alone puts this in a special category. Add the rocking fills that Jer puts behind the driving (truck in') rhythm, the tires whapping pavement sense, and that killerdiller solo mentioned above and hell yeah, this is world class stuff. Ignore at your own peril.

Hey Okozmic! Welcome to the site, but really? '74? No Help-Slip-Frank? No Estimated Prophet? No Cassidy or The Wheel? I'm as curmudgeonly an old '70s head as they make 'em, but even I've been known to enjoy a Shakedown Street or a - gasp! - Terrapin Station now and again.... Cheers!

Wow. In addition to the subtle and heartfelt interpretation of the lyrics, which I've always felt were some of Dylan's best, Jerry rips a killer solo toward the end (07:54). Great great show.

Garage band extraordinaire. Good old rock and roll.
