Aces! Jer channels flatiron energy to cook the Boulder heads on a skillet with this scorcher. Brent's B3, Bobby slides it's all here.

Thumping Phil, driving Billy and Jer delivering the biting licks -middle jam is a bench clearer.

nice one - I like his tone on this over the '94 (while that is a powerful jam). I can't handle that later sound of lighting bolt (?) like he's playing with nylon strings.

Jerry was on fire for this and the Terrapin. His attack on the first jam is CRAZY and then he chills out for the build up on the 2nd jam - his tone and pacing are perfect to me on this one.... the slow building, explorative work by Phil and Jer's staccato play along with Bobby's rhythm work - they hit many tasty grooves on this before the CAR CRASH ending.
