Clear lines and great tone all 6 string work from Jerry this night. It flows nicely not crazy but really finely crafted work.

These always start as a slow burn - at the 4:15 mark Jer takes off to the races>then to cool down >to ripping boogie down close.

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.
