Easy breezy with the glinty afterglare of yore. Drifty transition to boot. Nice twilight septet memory making.

Hard hat 92, bluegrass plinky. Alchemical goop-laden improv. bluesy panache.

touching simplicity of row bridges the bullet-train nowness of this ripping bizarre banger. Post-capitalist freako jazz hair metal..

Terrapin Station
April 6, 1982
The Spectrum

patient and magical!!! zero in on anyone at any point and they're totally zigzagging through moonlit amethyst caves. Continues the sailor theme as we learn of the ballad of carlysle. you can practically feel the brittle yellow leaves of papyrus in a precious codex as you turn the pages of the lugging leatherbound edition in the best terrapins and this one is buoyant and jazzy. wanders and basks... Close your eyes. You are at a bong party with a dozen other resident high school hippies in the bathroom of an amtrak with wall street bros queuing up the aisle. "The train's put its brakes on, and the whistle is screaming terrapin....." goopy coda

track that was played continually lesser in the intervening decades nonetheless so many gems in that rarefied crew, add this yamaha stage piano and amped up accompanied spectrum 82 juggernaut, sooo killing. Dance floor jousting with devils and weir whipping up souffle

continues the trillion dollar set with aplomb. Lots of attention to group blend yields marvellously deep groove. Lots of chaw slingin' porch dip spittin' to the point of camp, can't look away type beat. The embryonic, experimental period of the controversial "short shorts blues" slot. In my eyes it was sometimes filler but often would allow the instrumentalists to shake off the dust. Tiger totally flies on this one, great pick!!!!!
