Punchy with some heat. Pigs tone on the pipe organ(?) or electric piano makes this special too. Source:CM

Bob's slide work is CLEAN and on point and Jerry is in a frisky mood this night. Brent's B3 is hummin' - this version peels paint.

This TOO is the band's expression of string theory from what I gather.... Jaw dropping is an understatement and I think this is the most KICK ASS Mezcali I have heard yet.....Sheesh - careful with this sammie. Deserves way more listens which must result in way more votes imo.
