Jerry and Bob are both really good on this one. Phil and Bill drive it forward nicely as well -- doesn't drag at all like some do.

Billy really makes this one -- some very cool snare and hi-hat work starting just before 2:00!

Very technically sound — almost like he’s doing a rudiment exercise for much of it, which is fine by me!

^I noticed that too! Cracked me up because I always find that their intros sound similar, especially when they were both relatively new to me.
