Jerry's just on fire throughout this whole show. They jam the beginning for a while before the first verse at a nice, brisk clip.

Bit slower than the ones I usually groove on, but Jerry's bounce started off a very fine day for me.

Nice shuffle. Jerry and Donna's vocals on this sound great (how many times can you find that?)

Not the best ever, but the live premiere. Listen to the AUD to hear the crowd flip!

The best part for me is Jerry singing along with his guitar lines. Soulful stuff.
