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

This really hits the sweet spot for me on the solo when Jer comes out of the distant fog and he and Bobby lock in - BDubs rhythm playing is super here. Whole take is a different flavor than many others I have heard great find.
