Pigpen cut revived for the 90's with the group in kind of a slow crawling king snake vibe. Vince knows how to lay down some organ. Top late form.

horton field house on the horizon, cedar falls iowa in the rearview, scarfire magic is happening, as such this 3.0 rager is jester's hat right out of the gate. very substantial and rewarding version. Marvellous dynamics and mysterious melodies, fire is replete with great stuff, elegant easy wispy rhythms and Wolf throwing a tantrum.
