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

super duper crazy. The dead could play Sugar sugar by the archies and if it was 76 or 77 it would be great. No shade on bubblegum pop love the stuff just saying they could play anything

creative melt, infectious rhythms taking charge and swooshy momentum sailing through translucent polished light-filled piers.

monster dynamics... Perfect vocal, gorgeously dreamy tones Sick drums interlude, right in the spot of the show where their duet would grow to be in the years ahead.
