Bouncy as they come, the crowd goes crazy and Jerry just sounds like he's having fun

Beefy C.C. Rider, Brent laying on the hammond, a listenable slide solo by Bobby, all tied together with some Phil Bombs

Out of Hell in a Bucket, this one is fueled by Brent dancing all over the Hammond. HIGH energy

Epic as ever. Jerry shred-fest, Bobby sending it on the vocals, Brent laying on the hammond. They bring it down before one more eruption to end it.

Jerry low in the mix but is ripping it up, Keith really shines in this one, doesn’t miss a note

This is a really tight version, with Bobby going all in during the transition

So so so awesome. You can hear Bobby play his Big River intro lick in the mix at the start of the transition, and hear it come back together again 5 mins later...fantastico
