Listen to the SBD of this for a great example of Bobby's subtle, beautiful playing

Jerry blazing, Phil locked in.

Listen to how Jerry begins the second chorus of his solo. Brilliant. Mickey drives this hard too. Heat builds up in the set leading to this.

Solid version of this tune. Less of a trainwreck when played later in the set it seems.

First great post-coma moment. Phil is unbelievable throughout. Jerry's in it to win it. Check the SBD.

This is an insane version. Would be much higher if there was a SBD.

Great first solo and then everyone kills it in the jam, especially Bobby, Phil and Jerry

When Jerry wasn't paying attention (for whatever reason), it manifested itself in dropped beats. What he does at the end of this tune is not good.

Really interesting what Jerry plays during the verses and Bob's approach to the intro.
