The Spectrum

Admittedly not a favorite tune for me but this is super crispy - laconic delivery by Weir w/ Jer's picking and tone perfection. Whole show is massive.

Playfully different melody here really cool Jer is sporting very catchy phrasing - mid tempo no hurry super chill with highlights.

If you are like me and and love hearing Jerry going fully HAM on any song - take a spin with this S&D. By Lincoln’s Mullet it hits Mach speed. Ps I ain’t asking you to stick around for the Easy Answers yo! Source: Walker/Miller
