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

another ace on target mid 80's first set. It's about the energy and leaping crispy stargazing tones.

like a 70s music never stopped or a 90s bird, an 80s big railroad is going to hit you every time... wind the big man up and watch him firework ricochet across the trenches. is that keith richards and stephen stills? persian scat
