Beefy stetson hat workout. Ravishing harp and fun fender deluxe reverb tones.

Not unheard of to go into this after scarlet fire (34 times) still, something of a wacky pranksterish reset. Speedy and powerful version with growl.

Devils come alive. Joy ride to wirepickin' ecstatic oblivion. Furiously active yet not autobahn, deep 80s

Great one. Kits duet is really inspired. Space curdles out with noise but gets jester's hat nightmare with vocal pranks. Beautiful long bluesy intro

Classic '73. Just great and way down there in the pocket, the kind of thing you reach for and smile to know it's there. Philly tight af.

Cryin' bird of an old-school Row Jimmy. Blessing of a song and a classic version with which you can't go wrong, like anything from this crazy year for the group

Amazing stuff, the lead guitar work is wailin' and the interplay is out of sight. Delightful pitb.
