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

Hornsby on accordion makes this sound like it could be echoing out of a pub somewhere in Ireland. Jerry's solo is stunning. In some instances, like this, the accordion works. In others, like the subsequent Mexicali Blues, it is painful to endure. This one is lovely.

Sure, Keith and Jerry shine brightly on their solos, but Bobby floored me with some very nuanced, delicate fanning throughout. Choooooice.

Super slinky and slowed down version. Keith especially shines on this track, and throughout the entire show. Highly enjoyable
