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

Tender and floating in the corn fields wisteria littering as a fingering harp

crackling, engrossing, choice!!!! Elm city climbers, village green racers!!! Western red eye featureing explosive magnetic mid80's cerebral whimsically propulsive playing!!! Mercury film score mineral oil in Van gogh palette dreammachine, pure extravaganza of birthstone, arcanas drawn, aligned by the atman prevailing through meditative redemption. Thrills for nascar loops. Double time chonky melodicism. U name it. Bendy and insistent architectural cargo goods.
