Plaintive and soulful take that gets nicely bluesy at the finish a fine example of their sound this year.

Gem buried waaay down the list - Jer delivers a solo that feels like he just barely pulls a rabbit out of the hat ... works for me.

Deliberate molasses baked treat...no hurry delivery with the seats tilted waay back, shades on, rolling along at 7mph. yes it 's that good.
