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

Perfect. This one is really pretty, autumnal reflective transitive and wobbly. One for which to sit back!

"can i get a little less keyboard" Weir brutalizes vince in this outstanding lightning bolt years rendition.

Merriweather Post Pavilion

simply really heavy duty.... Airated aquarian reggae with the most symphonic regal transition jam, combustible with pent up chillness. Mega jazzy fire to boot
