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.

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

Jerry's playing is really hot by the end of this extended jam. Recommended.

Let It Grow jam builds to a wicked Caution-like inferno. Ridiculously good.

Relentless, exploratory, and smokin’ hot.

Today I learned that, at double speed, NFA can sound like the insanely jammed-out Minglewood that never was. Check out this version to hear what I mean. Brilliant show all around, and the AUD is pretty excellent!
