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

You know it's going to be a mammoth set when they cover a 12-minute, 1,000000 word dylan song in set 1. heady in the abstract sense, but it's driving and quite somethin'.

Really sparkling and lush. Its great stuff, shows the kind of rhythmic complexity of the Row Jimmy chord changes in a fast way. heady midi stuff

Some barrelhouse fun with bob. Some really cute moments with Jerry and Vince having some fun. Overall a tight rendition.
