there are only 8 ujb>terrapins. the next 2 are spring 90. this one is prodigiously epic in the same way, you can feel them writhing under trying to get around this material finding novel ways to express it and the result is a feverishly creative terrapin. Crazy how you feel like phil is just getting going in what's been a great phil show at the Category 5 peaks of the end. and who gives a hoot when jerry flubs the words, the dude's brain was hanging by a thread for 2 decades.
