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

Definitely cranks. Some muddy buttsweat gully funk treats, doled out in abun-dance. Lesh sounds F'n GORGEOUS on the new SBD release

Could turn any steely exterior into an emotive pile of love goo

Nice, mellow version. It doesn't have the explosive Bobby chaw at the end, but it comes together well for a pleasant finish

Good call on Keith with the B3 - you can really hear it more clearly on the new SBDs. Definitely gives it an eerie feel
