Spectacularly drunken entrance to this lean mean blue hot 93 Truckin with plenty of chonky chaw! Five alarm version, stellar concert.

Latter day gem that might be a surrogate memory of peter gabriel solsbury hill. Phil sings and jerry comes alive. sophisticated, breezy, and killing.

Slaying. Phil bombs. Throat-slicing intensity on the chorus. And the solo is flaming. Perfect early loser

the live LP version, from my birthday show. Seminal for this era. you can blast this and just explode into country-fusion craziness!! Quite the version.

Clean, lean, pristine. Chomp on the radiation, the alignment, of this.

We're back in 1973 now, opening the night with a heady Cumberland. Quality is pretty shitty for some reason as others have noted but come on, hot version!!!!!
