Jerry's in primal Viola Lee mode more than per country twang.

What an ending jam. Jerry improvises astonishing structures with ease and fluency. The others are right there with him.

Bursting with feeling and well-played by all.

Blazing version of this wild song. Lots of fun.

Jerry's solo is so articulate -- immaculately constructed. Some very fine stuff.

Phil seems to hint at the E-A-C jam from Music Never Stopped. Cool version.

“Precise” is right. Not a note out of place.

Well, this is just nuts.

Yeah, Phil is all over this version. I wouldn’t say Jerry’s vocal delivery is lacking, though. He fumbles a lyric at the end, but the dynamics and feeling are all there. Great version, though. Casts a spell.

Ah, the Download Series Vol. 10 version is actually filler from 7/22. Great in any case!
