Sharp, delightful version. Supercharged Keith’s melodic lines will keep you guessing.

Do not miss! Jerry and Billy delicately dance across this while Phil subtly challenges the stability.

Very cohesive version with a noticeable snap. And Phil’s prominent in the recording.

Don’t miss this wild, careening thrill ride. Start at Playin’ to get the full effect.

Drums -> Space

Downs of Santa Fe

Vivid Drums followed by extraordinary Space: a bright, melodic Bob and Jerry jam, then bicycle horns and a rich TOO intro jam.

How did I fail to give this version its due on any of my previous listens? This outro is beyond description.

Immaculate short version, and notably well sung.

I’ve been listening to this one for almost 20 years, and I’ve never loved it more. Words fail. I’m not sure it’s my favorite DS, but I think I might like it better than every version currently ranked higher.

I love the end jam on this. As he is elsewhere this run, Jerry is showing incredible guitar finesse and mastery.
