Pretty Peggy O
Beautiful and crisp has a great swing to it provided by the drummers.

Wharf Rat
emotionally powerful, great take on the tale of August West . Love the starkness of this version and the way they build the intensity as the song prog

Mexicali Blues
Another Polka time announcement starts the song, Bobby has a little extra growl to his voice, real nice backing from Brent on this one.
