Comes A Time

Devore Field

This tune is a universal wholloping avalanche. perhaps befitting of its relative rarity, compare its 65 versions to stella's 323, LLR's 414. Hymnally cratering and astrally amethystically proportional to the gods with verse tiger, Hunter is graveside again but with garcia's roadworn delivery it becomes a bemoanment. Chilling stuff, love mid 80s late set ballad.

inspired cut. The dirty soily side of their seedy americana jamming and interconcert jukebox weaving is essentially resourceful, glimmers in the mine.
