Madison Square Garden

right in line with the chromatic perfection of all the most extravagantly great 70s ramble solos, this one's pillowy 90's thing does indeed make it an impish, merry jester's hat of a cat in the hat fun version for the nyc peeeeps.... Boy works those lightning bolt FX

hot version... lean mean savage takes off a la black throated wind and the rousing closing passage chugs like a battering ram.
