2 Drummer breakbeat attack with Phil throwing down the rope a dope and Jer firing darts - this one's lively.

Admittedly not a favorite tune for me but this is super crispy - laconic delivery by Weir w/ Jer's picking and tone perfection. Whole show is massive.

Playfully different melody here really cool Jer is sporting very catchy phrasing - mid tempo no hurry super chill with highlights.

First LLR I heard live and while not a track I seek out to listen to normally - this version (off the sbd) is really wonderful to hear. Jer's delicate deft touch and tone is perfect - not one missed note and Brent's melding touch is superb. I'm all about firsts today...ho-hum.

The 1st of 3 Monster Dews in the month of April 1984 - 4/14 and 4/20 are the others - check them if you have a taste for extra wasabi with your Dews.
