Progress. Have the progression for Beat It On Down The Line and He’s Gone completely figured out. There’s an interlude in He’s Gone that I haven’t worked on yet. I’m trying to work it out in real time. Without any written notes. Just like you would figure it out at a jam.

Another awesome version of Good Lovin

If you don’t like Big Boss Man and never heard of Jimmie Reed go your room right now!

“I don’t know what you are burning out there but it smells distasteful. Like some old socks”

Some of you might recognize this line from Cheech and Chong’s Big Bambu album.

Turn On Your Lovelight is really good!

And it ends with Jerry saying “see you later, people”
