Yeah this is not “easy” as Bobby tries to make it , Jerry picks away with his hearts desire and Bill lays down a fantastic beat. And Keith sounds incredible!!!! Great version

Jerry's voice is immaculate in this version. Ton of emotion and a great solo too. Love this one for the year

Agreed, but I love how high up Bobby is in the mix. Big reason why I dig this release

I stand corrected, this was listed as a Jerry & Friends show just like the March Kezar Stadium show. Regardless: a worthwhile listen for the remaining songs on Blues for Allah to be debuted besides TMNS

Kinda short for the era but explosive as hell. Primal Dead sounding
