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

decidedly spanish intro with impressionistic Goya explorations into yer face - this set is really far out, they won't accept an answer, on the caboose to oblivion with seemingly no stop then bam lightning rod Imax cosmos Dark star jam... translucent on a plane of lace, gulping from stardust in volcanic ashes, we have gone and shall come back through transitive nightfalls as well as hopeful dawnrises round n round

Potent masterful development and recapitulation of noblesville mighty scrolls of reptilian transit themes. Poetic, listen to bobby roar on that flat-minor scale
