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

Scarlet Begonias -> Fire On The Mountain

Heavy and thrashing to new levels of imaginative interplay, even so, the drone transition is thoughtful and the Fire is opulent, gaseous and extraneously gooey jerry taffy. Roof-raising, epic, beaming hope and grateful!

another mid80s brb that's like a motorcycle flooring it across county lines through an endless expanse of cactus-lined dune
