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

strong one, devils is incredible, just fanning on core jam, brings in insane sampling, returns to primal ritual before the net drops out... good ole space man, wow gorgeous and collosal all at once, Hart stays on, towering Jerry harmonizer pedal and everyone else puddles it into a cohesive painterly poem of an avant bridge between dad rock
