3 votes?! This one is a wet rembrandt... nothing showy about it, layered masters. My god that lick before "wind in the willows" then a beautiful elegant rainforest jam no transition... Lesh is uber activated. love the mid 80's, this is another beast altogether, everyoine's flying and on the cusp of their next great sound!

even though it was boilerplate by the later years, Come on man they love playing this one, it's so tasty!!!! combines chaw man big bluesy time with colombian-fueled angst pop. Great barlow piece to go with it... "'Cause you're a sweet little softcore pretender Somehow, babe, it got as hot as it gets With her black leather and gold spike suspenders And your chain, your black whip and pets. Well we know you're the reincarnation Of the infamous Catherine the Great" sexy stuff!!! This one is precision and power.
