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.

Good, long instrumental break.

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!!
