94. Driving Through A Dream

Something in the Wilderness

We take a brief detour from Jack's Summer to talk about a sometimes-overlooked gem of a song that has fallen out of the live show in recent years for the most part. I haven't ever spoken to another fan who considers this one of their favorites. Is it one of your favorites?
