You can tell this was a great rendition but this AUD is just way too muddy. An aggressive EQ might do this one some good

No SBD but this AUD is actually quite fantastic. This is a superb version, totally worth your time

Words to describe this one: gentle, tranquil, just beautiful. Criminally underrated. Talkin 25 to life criminally underrated.

There's some intentional stutters in the solo that the whole band picks up on and its magical. On fire, not sure how this wasn't already here

Very abrupt out of mama tried-- Jerry takes a longer solo and totally kills it. 100% worth a listen

Jed!!!! I absolutely agree with you!! I love that Great American HSF. It's hard not to like it! But I also feel like it has no personality-- it sounds very "default." I'm not knocking it by any means, if someone puts it on I'll be grooving, but it definitely lacks that x-factor. I'm just getting around to checking out other versions of HSF and this one is really doing it for me. Dusborne matrix is bangin

Everyone should check this one out! The solo sections are almost free-form in a way in that Jerry is sort of just doing whatever he wants, and it makes for a unique version. Should have way more votes than the 3 it has after adding mine.

Always love Jerry's passionate, sweet intro soloing on this tune. Veneta is probably the best example of it

Nutty. That's all I can say about this one

Jerry's intro solo on this one smokes, and Keith adds a lot of pretty little fills. Can never get enough of this song
