Sounds like Scotty borrowed Lars’ snare drum from the St. Anger recording sessions during the composed part of Robot World. It does get better once the jam gets going but yeesh. We’re not out of the woods with these soundboards just yet.
Given the song is AD and a jazzy number, definitely requires a slow down to make it a cleaner segue → Mulche’s. Really highlights the triplet pentatonic in the intro of Mulch’s and they sometimes do the slow tempo then > [double time] to regular tempo > song intro with the classic Allman Brothers style harmonizing before the verse
It seems general consensus is positive on Scotty, and I’m in that camp for the most part. But damn, listening to this Anchor Drops and Small Strides was tough. What is up with him completely changing up Small Strides?
