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

So crunchy crunch crunch... the rideout is so freaking sweet... Phil Phil Phil Phil Phil all through this and the NFA lead in. ACK!!! LOVELIGHT!!! The one where Bobby checks James Brown on the ending chorus - one of the best LL's nobody's heard.

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.
