I love when you can actually Pig's organ with Keith's piano in one jam. I wish that had been the case more often. This version is sloppy, yes. But the energy more than makes up for it if you ask me.

That heavy blues mini-jam shortly after Drums alone makes this version worth seeking out. But in general, this is easily one of the best TOOs in a year full of them.

Agreed, excellent vocal performance.

Possibly my favorite version of this song. Both the jam and verse/chorus sections of the song are completely inspired and every member of the band is contributing to their fullest. There may be bigger versions, but none of them are as just exactly perfect as this one.

Not quite one of the all-time barnburners, but this one cooks with lots of aggressive fills from Bob.
