A bit of a rarity. Jerry and Donna's vocals together (yes, giving donna props) are so tender. Boys nail the country style tune. For some reason, I dig

Jerry destroys this version. Turns on the hose and never let's up. Complete shredfest

Shreddy, heady goodness. Jerry gives this one a solid dabble

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
