A ripper for sure...8-4 and 8-5 are here, but the best (this one) isn't? What are we doing here?

Right on...definitely takes an adjustment, but this set pays off big time...I sprung it on a deadhead friend, and he loved it. Definitely gives the "being there" feeling, peaking with the crowd and all that...

Not sure...must have a mislabeled cd. But whichever version, it does smoke.
