Jerry is very, very sharp on this. Except for the lyrics.

This version rewards multiple listens. Like it was good the first time, great the second. I hesitate to listen to it again. Bobby leads the way.

Jerry plays one brilliant idea after another as Phil provides counterpoint.

Jerry's singing on the verses is powerful. Bobby, Phil and Brent are great throughout.

Jerry really seems to be trying to find something in the solo, and takes it through the chorus and all over again, not quite finding it, but reaching some deep emotion. Also much prefer the clean guitar sound over the distorted that he used later on.

Bobby plays great and Jerry's vocals are deep and emotional. Who knew Jack was a river?

I love the slow jam into SOC, which is unique and maybe even a better way to play the tune. And the Estimated jam after is sick.

Love the extra long solo in Lady With a Fan. Drummers sound great throughout. This version has a deep, drowsy, hypnotic feel. Needs more than 2 votes.
