Gold Here. SUBLIME - this is where all the soft touches come together. Bob is especially deft with the underlying patterns. Phil is perfect.

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.
