The Seamons Matrix of this from March 2018 really brings this whole show to another level. Listening to the middle jam of this version (starting around the 10 minute mark with Bobby sliding his pick down the neck) made me rethink this old standard. What a delight. Get this Matrix!

And at 23 minutes it must clock in as one of the longest versions.

Are you kidding me? Why doesn't this version have like 10000000 votes? It's magnificent. The entire band gives it their all.
