Super tight, locked in jamming. Flows effortlessly into WRS

Bobby's vocals are mint and Jerry is owning lead. Very noice

Beautiful spacy bowl of Jerry noodles leading into space. Short, but sweet

Comes together very nicely for the last minute or so.

Finally pulled the trigger on this beauty on vinyl and My. God. It's been a while since I heard this version and floored just like the first time. The band is so tight, Jerry so nimble, and Chill Lesh so thick on the bassline. Crisp, melodic, and sublime.

I’m shocked no one commented on the disgusting Keith/Brent/Pig three-way dueling pianos solos into vocal raps for each. Not quite Cornell quality version, but HEADY all the same.

Pulsing jam with great full band interplay that for me, is far superior to the oft lauded version just a few days later in tour. Everyone dialed in to create unified voice

God, this one is straight gorgeous. Patient, with excellent Jerry and Brent.

Deep, thick groove in this one. Brent/Jerry joint MVPs.
