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

Great one. Kits duet is really inspired. Space curdles out with noise but gets jester's hat nightmare with vocal pranks. Beautiful long bluesy intro

Mush lesh mush. Glorious buffet of clarion euphoric stew.

River Bend Music Center

All-pro first team show. Bluesy 85 "so far" "trouble ahead" magnetics for the volks. Spheres of raw blues club talent defiant and jagged all over that hot summer. Shag carpet vocal scat versh firebomb soloing

Tank fizzler of a deeply meant nug, noided weir f bomb
New Minglewood Blues

Oozing party time bravado. Whole lotta mojo daddy slot. Cannonballs into this version which closes set 2 of 4 with a prickly jesters hat don't ease.
