Hot and sweaty sounding mix with a bit of a slow burn from Jerry - not crazy with the macho but cool.

Smokes hot just like you say - hard charging and straight ahead.
Chinatown Shuffle

Went back to listen to the ending and you are right on with that WRS noodling hahah very cool catch. This whole stand at the Academy is crazy - they could cull and release this run.
