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

Doesn't get much better than this. This one's got peaks and valleys as opposed to a lot of other NFAs that are just all peak. Listen to Jerry strum; it's severely understated how difficult it is to strum full chords like that cleanly on guitar.

Hard to argue with this one.

Keith's keys are just booming; love the ascending/descending tension-building licks he plays. If I had to describe this with one word I'd call it "bombastic." Very loud, a lot of low end with Jerry adding that Wolf sparkle on top. Jerry's close encounters jam should be broadcast on loop 24/7 from every satellite in space. Might attract some visitors.
