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

great guero and crickets intro, twinkly dark star esque vince. Ricocheting morphine drip of sick playing. clarion moan of a dirgy jam

Outstandingly free pitb. cavernous shimmery mines of developing film and descent. Sweet duet, firey woodshedding Spaghetti western beam. Verdently strident squishy space with beautiful hazy wandering, acheives a startling ambivalence dripping with irony. Great stuff Plinky haunted house gussies up the throng, whisked and stolen to doughy abcesses

Inspired. Another titanic "acoustic era" Lightning bolt exploration... yearning devils.. goes cranial wackjob quick but still in rootsy pine soil folk jazz aquarian bliss. sparse and zany stabs and swoopy sirens of eliciting lies from truthful mouths
