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

Great rec on this one heady friends. Get the matrix by mdmilhausen. Very nice matrix; real warm and roomy. Jerry's leads are lucid, rhythmic, and soulful here. Brent bounces off of him perfectly. I'll never argue against Brent being better than Keith on shakedown. His keyboard tones fit perfectly with this song in contrast to other songs where they sound a little out of place.

Not sure how often I will revisit this one, but a very interesting/unique rendition. Definitely reminiscent of a Bertha groove. First solo opens up with a lot of bursty pull-offs. Very different style of eyes soloing

Fantastic. I like Brent in this one. Very nice from the outro through the transition to eyes

Fantastic. Fast but not too fast to the point where the solos get disjointed. If the eyes has got an elongated intro jam then I'm all in
