Eerie. this jerry-driven version is mired in the paranoia of imminent doom with the wink of cyberjazz. Reaches a to1-esque crater of solemn peace.

80s are a goldmine for LLR's, this one wirey, lustrous and cinematic.

welcome wink of a heel-diggingly true pure rendering. Spiky and down home like jerry and hunter's best evocations of timeless tribulation and delitez.

meat thrashing, skull punk folding chair smashing Mr. McMahon Fuck you mr benson Deal. Hold onto your hard hats starting around 5 minutes ish, staggering segment of excellently activated GD on full volcanic blast with kreutzmann shuffle fanning, never misses getting a nanosecond ahead of the beat in that tastiest of searching ways, phil bombs did i say? Wish i could listen to this first set on vinyl, exquisite

This one finds its footing and boom rocket fuel for mars... Absolutely shredding. Good ole trouble ahead blues with swirling brent and percolating dark roast.
