Tennessee Jed

River Bend Music Center

An absolutely fire Jed from an underrated show. Solo/buildup into final "Tennessee, Tennessee, there ain't.." is eye watering

This rocks--it's more keyboard heavy then other "blow away"s which is definitely a good thing

LOL, normally someone with "Tough Critic" in their username will be viewed as too opinionated, but this is no lie. This is an amazing version! The energy in Scarlet is crazy, just wonderful, and they bring that energy throughout both tunes. What a pleasure to hear on a hot day!

bummer. my bad dudes! Indeed, "Steppin Out" does have this edited to go into "On Top of the World". Regardless, this BTW is tight.

anyone familiar with aquarium drunkard? Great site for modern and old musical findings. This was their most recent "Dead note"--one song from a classic dead recording. Very glad I clicked it!!
