i'll take your hundred bucks...RR would've been 7 minute jams of overextended repetitiveness that would've taken away what makes SY so great.
love jim's work with gastr del sol, a couple of his solos were alright, but i'll have to be honest...i don't think he made SY any better when he joined. after listening to RR, i would say he held SY back from them doing what they were good at.
really, one of the main reasons why Jim was in SY was because kim's age and ability to keep playing bass(she doesn't want to be the "primary" bassist full time).
