Really inspired, a kicking wisteria ode to the crackle of 72 versions. Long island love, big man goes off in this one, walls of devils too

Lost Sailor -> Saint of Circumstance

Perfect, thoughtful, volcanic, placid, all of the above. Melty goopy and funky. Tells a story in sound painting. I really like this song... has that LLR, let it grow uber earnest Barlow thing in spades. The theatrics on this splendid version take Indy to giddy new heavens, the floor loses it for jerry, but then when don't they. Shout out to weir for a triple shot of great jams
