They really attack it as opposed to sauntering through it…one of the most energetic I’ve heard! Don't let an audience tape scare ya...

Really great solo from Jerry — fast, banjo-style picking

Starts with some Buddy Rich-style hi-hat play…sounds like he’s doing that thing Buddy would do playing the bottom hat with his left hand fingers!

Amazed this is so far down! It's one of my favourites because it has the '72-style jamming AND the second verse! I'm not sure why they stopped singing the second verse--took me awhile to get used to it, and I still don't like it. I guess maybe they thought it enabled smoother transitions into other songs, but they kept singing the second verse of "The Other One," and still pulled off some killer transitions with it...
