Tender, soothing, perfect. Brimming with firecracker... jerry rips a mean fret-flyer or two

down to business in the mines of emotion. Tight and incredible. A gem of a intuitive version with lots of rootsy charisma and swingin' euphoria..

Slow and serious. Mickey is masterful as is the overall tone control.Solo could have had more satisfying crescendo, fun lowkey set 1 vibe

gobsmackingly propulsive, stands with the best, most fluid and excitingly spritely stranger jams. Must-hear.

Epochal with black diamond melt from a groovy casual cc rider... jericho said it. The stuff of legend for hornsby era lovers.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P9Z04tD8_rs nice matrix-y source, economical but very impactful mydland years east coast gig. Opens set 2 and like the bird song before it glimpses melodic but cavernously abstract space. Lesh lovers pizza and taffy backing, pan seared Garcia finish, spiralling The eleven-esque mid section, you'd want a 90's end jam where they halve the length of the chord changes resulting in a more yacht rock feel but this one gets half way there with some creative fillings in
