    Three things that make this recording a landmark
    1. Jack you are by now licenced at 😎 mastering 😎 so you obviously became omnipotent. ♾
    2. Cory let his his signature Strat sound hide in the background and composed a leftover from Gaucho. I certainly expected that Donald Fagen's vocals pop up sometimes (please do a collab with him already, as long as you can 🙏)
    3. Whatever Woody contributed to the track.
