Explosive show opener. Wire to wire intensity, energy and execution. A must-hear for Bucket fans.

Hot vocals. Bruce crazy good. Jerry & Vince sound good on their solos. Awesome version.

A great song they should have played more. Solid version. Hornsby is all over it.

Phil's vocals here are as good as it gets for this tune.

Instrumental jam hitting some sweet peaks.

Jerry nails the "throw me in the jailhouse" part, spot on.

The instrumental jam is fluid, floating along like a butterfly. Jazzy, it seems like it's a brother of the jams towards the end of Estimated. Jerry flows into MIDI flute - which works very well - back into guitar-mode. The re-entrry jam is focused, with purpose, as it buidls and lands back home. Jerry's voice is in good shape. Beautiful.

Love the way they work the fiddle into the instrumental jam, along with Jerry and Bruce.
