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

Scarlet Begonias -> Fire On The Mountain

Deer Creek Music Center

Love this one!! it's an exciting percolating and raw one, bruce adds a lot but Jerry for his part totally cleans this one out, sensational lead work.

Essential embryonic one from a big summer. grungy and deluxe wedding cake trojan horse of a travis beane and keith on grand nug.

Playin' In The Band

Merriweather Post Pavilion

Bit surprised at the normal choice of Playin->uncle john after a scarfire that kinda bends timeee.. Yet another one that's worth every second though, good ole modal weave in command. this is a rather sensitive pastel dusky rainfall versh. Brilliantly searching innovative lines and techniques from all devilz included, cats locked in the tunnel.
