From the cold depths of 1982. Powerful, imaginative solo with surprising twists and turns. Listen to the matrix.

The intervals and touch and chromatic phrases in the solo are fantastic

The chordal figure Jerry plays in the jam is unusual for him, in its character and for how long he repeats it. Hypnotizing
