Laid back version with some really nice fusion style jamming. Doesn't had for deep space, but segues beautifully into a nice 'Uncle John's Band'

There's a strange, almost shuffle quality/tempo going on in the main verses. The jam is absolutely sublime. I agree with the initial commenter that Jerry and Brent seem to engaged in a fantastic dialogue, just like some of the the best jazz improv
