Gold Here. SUBLIME - this is where all the soft touches come together. Bob is especially deft with the underlying patterns. Phil is perfect.

I agree Crow - Truckin' has been phoned in by the band more than a few times but when its on itz ON and this one has some nice muscle to it - check out 5/13/78 for some different blues jammin' - would like to hear your comment on that.
