Beefy stetson hat workout. Ravishing harp and fun fender deluxe reverb tones.

Not unheard of to go into this after scarlet fire (34 times) still, something of a wacky pranksterish reset. Speedy and powerful version with growl.

Devils come alive. Joy ride to wirepickin' ecstatic oblivion. Furiously active yet not autobahn, deep 80s

Passionate twinkly hymnal jed>eternity. Traverses the aesthetics of british indie synth sound design, southern rock, authentic rosetta stone chicago blues and late 50s cali jazz, what just happened? Sorcererly first set, thick fast fluid spires of lightning bolt lead work and theatricality, heart and winks abound. Other one jam pindrops into timeless willie dixon life manual musings
