The band tries to kill the pre-SSDD jam, but Jerry is having no part of it and he plays on.

Jerry got some serious boogie goin' on. How did this gem escape our attention for so long?

The band rolls up their sleeves and this Truckin' is no-nonsense rock & roll to open an epic set. It rolls into an amazing China>Rider.

Yeah - I also like it how Jerry blows the windup and landing and they try it again and again. Nice to hear them rock in '77. Cool version.

Come off it. This song is supposed to boogie down and rock. It's not a freakin' light and airy soufflé.

Jerry hasn't worked all the lyrics into the song yet, but his vocals are clear. Brent's playing piano and it sounds really good. Rock & roll and a piano are a perfect match!!
