Moments Worth Listening For
The conversational, half-spoken storytelling that builds into the rhythmic chant of One Bourbon, One Scotch, One Beer.
The aggressive, percussive slide guitar attack that opens Delaware Slide, sounding more like a machine than an instrument.
The moment the rhythm section locks into the Bo Diddley beat on Ride On Josephine, turning a simple cover into a heavy stomp.
