Jam is exceptional. Love Bobby and Keith's chords jabbing and punctuating Jerry's lead

Sneaky version with great playing by Keith and Jerry. Love what Jerry plays at the end of the jam.

I know they should have played Dark Star in Egypt. But this is a fantastic EP. Dynamic, dramatic, Jerry on fire.

Huge, 18-minute version with great dynamics, deep vocals. Bobby's slide playing and interplay with Jerry are great.

So sorry to hear it NJ!

It's super weird that Jerry is playing the riff in the wrong key here. It gives to tune an otherworldly feel that's kind of cool, but weird.

This tune is so perfect for Keith. He sounds great, as does Bobby. Love that he's so high in the mix in this SB.

Love Jerry playing Woody Woodpecker at about 5 minutes in. They get down to business in the jam. Love Bobby's playing throughout.
