I always liked that riff (always failed the quiz, tho), so it's great to hear more of it and find out who did it.  |

It appears Ry Cooder can do nothing wrong. This is yet another great track. And as usual, he knows how to keep his head down and not take over the stage nor the praise from the other musicians.  |

I dig it. And it sounds like they copped the vibe intro from the Stones "Under My Thumb" in the middle there. Didja hear it? I thought Bill was fading in that song. Coolness |

I didn't give it a "10" this time, but MY GOD! This is is primitive, modern, rockin, cool, way out, classic and a million shades of everything good in music. I can almost decipher the words by the use of the voice. Simply incredible. Oh, Ry, you rock, always did, always will
