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)

Short and sweet. Jerry rips a tight solo in the middle

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
