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

The Youtube is the must for this gig - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bFZHrDe-2K8 . Acknowledging that this is a "warm-up" show of sorts considering that it's in Jersey and they had a five-night run in NYC after it. Even so, there's lots of glorious shit in it like a red-hot Mississippi, scarlet fire, morning dew, row jimmy and music never stopped, so i'll quit my moaning now.
