From the beginning, this Hood feels just a little different, in keeping with the evening's theme. Mike strikes a delicate balance between bouncy and mellow in the intro. What follows from there is a conventional bit of Hood until Page brings a little extra as we thank Mr. Minor. Then Mike strikes up that same balance present in the intro and he and Trey trade gossamer licks over Fishman cymbal work. Page charges back in and each of the boys find compelling places to build from, with Trey in particular finding his voice into the whale-call charged crescendo, from which they equally bring home an emphatic "feeling good about hood." In my humble opinion, this one is absolutely worthy of the yellow.
