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.

80s are a goldmine for LLR's, this one wirey, lustrous and cinematic.

Towering "shoes on her toes" version of scarlet fire, fluid and charged with kinetic energy, very natural sounding comping and soloing, all around just pristine i would say!!!! Killing killing killing, this 78 first set is.
