They took more time doing the sound check for this radio session. For BBC, Ben abbreviated it, leaving out a section, the full version was over 15 minutes...not youtubable. Too bad it has to be heard with all the compression, part of why the harmonica is a little overwhelmed sometimes.
ALVIN "YOUNGBLOOD" HART had a interesting version of this song.
