Eerie. this jerry-driven version is mired in the paranoia of imminent doom with the wink of cyberjazz. Reaches a to1-esque crater of solemn peace.

welcome wink of a heel-diggingly true pure rendering. Spiky and down home like jerry and hunter's best evocations of timeless tribulation and delitez.

casual, conversational, warm, aromatic. Structurally perfect. Mesmerizing. Great new yorker piece, carrion, "Thou must not touch the stereo during The Transition" This one has a seasoned, patient tidal tone.
