Great Saint, though the goods are in the MLB > Dear Prudence jam that follows. I can only imagine the level of blue balls in the house for that tease

Jerry's voice is crisp, his playing is sharp, and Keith does a great job with atmospheric organ fills

This one crushes. Jerry absolutely layering the goodies on in the solos and fantastic Bobby work on rhythm during the verses to set the tone. Remember this one from tapes and always dug, but haven’t heard in ages til the release just now. Def upper echelon version!
