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

i love this one. it's so warm and melty and its understated blur effect gives room for keith and phil to really get creative and shine, all over the place as well as the customary wolf rippling and tremendous bobby shapes

this one lives up to the promise of this innovative and terrific first set with boundless imagination. So damn chill and alley cat stealthy that it could thaw the palestinian crisis. Well lets just say that the valves are rotating quickly and before the halfway mark we're in trapeze turbo jazz-funk. some utterances bring about certain inescapably noble standardz. this PITB is mesmerizing here comes the plinkazoid still in the blimp chill of a loose kreutzmann

it's that june 74 warmth gooey porousness and gracefully underclass debonair accompanied with towering scaffolds festooned in cashmere and pieces of the western trails of the days of settlers and the cherokee
