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..

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.
