Everyone takes turns taking punches in the end, extremely well played!

Easily the best one I have ever heard, the outro is long and lazy and dominated by Jerry instead of Bobby on slide, check it out!

This is very tight and balanced, it almost sounds rehearsed...

Very weird, intense version, sounds to be a a theme of a wild west action comic book cartoon?

Man I love this 'silky' version. Jerry plays about 50% less notes than your typical CRS. Que this one up and melt away in your chair.

Most up-tempo CRS of the year. Jerry means business during the outro!

Bruce/Vinny/Bobby really get at this one! The Row Jimmy, TLEO, UJB and BTW also shine on this night
