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

serious version that is very dialed in and jazzy and goes off the rails in time for a great Midi scarlet fire, this whole sequence is mystical brain chip circus music

Inspired throw>away closer. shimmering waves of intuitive coasting, outrageous Phil and devils, firebreathing jerry and brent!
