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

hauntingly beautiful transpositions of the to1 spiral sputter in from space, waterfalls hissing for deities' pilgrims drowning below! Powerful passage, brent years in jaguar mode. Awesome version, long-winded experimental and firebreathing!!! Phil and brent going nuts

Great summer 90 playin!!! High octane melodically charged, sandwiches a clean feathery uncle john with forestal midi exploration and tangibly hot architecture
