I actually dig Hornsby's flare on this. Jerry nails a sweet solo at the end too. Very heartfelt

Full head of steam. Good Phil work on a song that is typically a Jerry shredfest highlight reel (this is still a Jerry shredfest highlight reel)

Deep, sultry groove to open the show, paired with a triumphant Franklins. Agree with comment above on thick Phil groove work

Jerry falsetto and crunchy, bouncy bluesy jam. Heater!

This version is everything. Jerry's licks leading into the jam portion are indelibly etched into my brain. I have no shame in double commenting - this one is one of the absolute tops and deserves dap.
