Booming peak jam, then a flawless segue back into TOO

Two huge swells in this one. The first is a very funk jam led by Keith and Billy. The next involves a manic peak by Jerry. Worth checking out

This jam is a patient wave of energy that hits a progressive peak, then dissipates as cautiously as it grew

Jam starts fairly mellow, then Jerry vaults it into noodley hyperspace

I really urge people to spin this one. Such a creative jam out of NFA. Brimming w creativity. My favorite version for sure

Glad to hear Cuse! Jort army standard issue uniform includes: pink tank top (can be supplemented with the occasional Madonna T shirt), 80's reflective sun glasses, tube socks, and of course, pre-cut, frayed 8 inch regulation denim jorts. Damn bobby's steeze got weird... Guy is the man though, so I applaud him just being himself. Easily the unsung hero of the band and the guy that gets the most shit (besides donna, of course)

Dug it, thanks a lot! The way you feel about this version is the way i feel about 5-9-79. Literally the best bobby/jerry interplay i have ever heard, featured in the end jam. I implore people to listen - you will not be disappointed. Again though, this version is really sweet. Sorry for the highjack!
