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

blue hot submarine version. Dark, woozy, magisterial. Another stupendous llr.

fascinating one, got a fuckin puppet show polka pull, the glorious occasional intimate venues of 4.0 coming through for more resonant bliss. Spring 84 love.

Shakedown Street

Market Square Arena

yet another impressive and different early shakedown this one is super honky tonk, got that silky sweetness with a little spicy aftertaste, phil with the upper cuts and drummers with the hooks.
