Some crisp, bluesy guitar from Jerry and hot vocals from Bob.

Jerry is all over the place with the lyrics, but Brent is playing his butt off.

Jerry starts it off by flubbing the lyrics, but it's well played after that.

The jam before SSDD, Jerry is in the lead, and slowly but surely, Brent takes over and the spotlight is on him.

Instrumental jam hitting some sweet peaks.

Jerry nails the "throw me in the jailhouse" part, spot on.

The instrumental jam is fluid, floating along like a butterfly. Jazzy, it seems like it's a brother of the jams towards the end of Estimated. Jerry flows into MIDI flute - which works very well - back into guitar-mode. The re-entrry jam is focused, with purpose, as it buidls and lands back home. Jerry's voice is in good shape. Beautiful.

Love the way they work the fiddle into the instrumental jam, along with Jerry and Bruce.
