-> in from an historic "Sneakin' Sally." Strong version, but quite different from most of the Fall '97 versions.

Here, Trey solos beautifully, but Page's role seems far more restrained. There is far less of a full band build towards the end than musical support for Trey's incredible soloing. To some ears, the best "Taste" ever. To others, it's too one dimensional.
