Powerhouse blues number, this was always thought of as one of the best versions, shocked it is not here by now.

Starts out a little off kilter but finds it’s groove and starts to really cook. Vocally strong throughout. Phil and Bobby are high in the mix. Jerry’s guitar is a touch thin. Vinny does a nice job here. a good well sung version.

Wow this is great stuff deserves way more love. Tasty jam at the end.

Passion and emotion don’t equal quality. This train wreck should not be number one. Arguably one of the worst moments in the bands performing history. I can’t see why anyone would feel the need to revisit the complete breakdown emotionally of another human being. It just seems morbid if not downright evil. So you advocate for an upvote because it sucked that bad and honestly showed us why Brent was such a mess for the rest of his life. Seems sick to me actually worse than sick it’s disgusting.

Maybe the best rider ever. I think it is clearly the best rider of the Brent era.

This is a nice energized version of a song that would somstimes get phoned in. Not here. Crackling with energy.
