Hmmm, another tough one. I liked B a lot, but the atmosphere in A is irresistible.

A is fun, but B hits a bit deeper. Good match, though - no shame in either pick.

I quite like both of these, tough match. Earl's guitar maybe gets it in the end.

a - I well remember when I first heard this; three seconds of that great throbbing riff and I'd already bought it in my mind and then that conversational sax and jangly guitar get outings. It's not particularly wild, despite the name – in fact, the control of the players is what creates the dramatic tension – but by crint, it makes a fine rocking noise I'm liking today almost as much as I did back then. 7.5 / 10
b - A fine bluesy R&B tune, with some precise guitar by Mr King and a fine horn solo, but there's nothing to lift it beyond that for me 6 / 10

A is amazing. Never heard it before. I love the experimetnal nature of this period, and this track is a mad sound.
