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

Jester's hat jack in the box, terrific, bolstering. Transition is just as robustly banging as any from the 70's, rider gives off vibes of a demented ramble on.

Embryonic passion and layering care. Don't miss the blue flame send out

popping carbonated frizzy sensationally gliding with ease, summoned by the tide!! Tiger quality, unreal weir bending the axis, lesh shattering egos, mydland sworded and double horned rose vision of the devils. Swoops for clean invigorated stealie 83 versh.

Hasn't been a go-to tune for me, nonetheless this ones very slappin. At its best its a showcase for crack harmonies, vibe influential to the jam band genre in terms of slowcooked southern funk and marathon mutron!! Always a harbringer of a focused involved set.
