Bobby accidentally tries to bring it back into the chorus at the end, some heated bickering between him and Phil? Brent "Everybody makes mistakes!"

A fiesty Sugar Mags...with HORNS?!? The band is firing on all cylinders for this one. The September '73 horns tour is so so so underrated

Woah this baby is rollin downhill slow and crescendos to a finish. Jerry singing with some gusto

Keith really shines here, the 18th definitely takes the cake for Big Rivers on this run. Sounds like Jerry is trying to get into the groove but his picking hand just isn't workin the way he wants it to

Agreed with Carrion, the fact that we can listen to them work the song out in real-time is so cool. Also this is pre-mutron Jerry, so definitely interesting to hear his guitar tone naked and clear with the funk of the song. Anyone know when he first started using the mu-tron in 76/77?
