Red and Terry were actually both playing on On Susan's Floor. It is a wonderful solo that Terry duplicated with sublty on a couple of shows back in 98. My favorite Red licks are in the category of accents, not necessarily solos. The playing on If I Could really adds flavor to the song. Also, Red plays IYCRMM a bit of a different manner than Terry. The licks are subtle in places but a little louder and more numerous in the choruses. And of course, you can't beat the octave playing on Apology (at the end).
