Another cover I did off of the Stain album.  I really like playing this song because I almost never play it the same way twice.  It has a great improvised feel which is why I like it so much.  This also makes the performance nowhere near note for note perfect.  There is no way I am going to emulate every single dive bomb, squawk, and note that Vernon Reid made.  The solo is adlibed with the exception of some parts, I always enjoy playing that solo, having watched Vernon play live he almost NEVER duplicates anything which is a real treat.

Enjoy the tune!
