Really dark sounding jam dominated by Phil and Jerry. Some unique, jazzy soloing from Jerry too.

Wild, hairy, and at times scary Herbie Hancock-esque jazz in this one. One of the all-time best!!!

I first heard this version on the 'So Many Roads' box set. About as experimental and downright scary as this band could get in the late '80s...
