this one is a gimme for Hornsby's jumpstart chops which makes for a devastating affair with jer and the guys lockin' in.

Laconic and textural, devils hang loose. Chasms of endless spirals of blank fear only to be boingy wackjob cyberjazz, menacing, for OG 90's heads

High spirited and activated septet playing. Lengthy tonal solo and manic 7/4 takeoff

Truckin' up to buffalo, mothafucka!!!! How have I never seen this...... Amazing. Jerry's voice is stunningly incredible today. Mickey and Brent are feisty, filling in with bombs a-plenty. dynamite version pretty interesting rhythm toward the end of the solo! Notable for Bobby "High 5" countin during the solo section - king of polyrhythmic emphasis and that kind of interlocking singing that keith richards craved in mick taylor - the weaving
