Very sweet version. Boys hit a nice sweet spot in this jam. '91 was a decent year for this tune.

Holy hellfire! This version defies words. Listened to this 3 times today to make up for not having heard it before. I love how the machine gun jamming finally calms down, then on the drop of a dime Billy kicks back in and the boys are instantly in high gear again. Priceless!
