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

Chicken pickin' by way of leprechaun squelchy synth out of a hot dancin' int he street. not as jammed out as similar versions, nonetheless, this ones a-grade, not skimpy
