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

Chef's kiss haunted house spritzer coin toss, demented and spired PITB coiling round shells and moon's thorn keys. Thanks to the thrashing multiplicities this one pulls off a spooky, surly afterglare as well as splashes of smiling encouragement. Sonically this one must have been nuts in person. Weir's swoopy performance provides wholesome fitness wheat. This one will settle in your crevices as a conscious listener in search of tiger, for the approach is more like gliding thru black night no dawn in sight. Greatly mysterious folky version

there must be some mistake... Not a 94 Van gogh nor a one-drummer years trancely expedition. When will shows lined double barrels down with Brent-era bangers get their due as serious nitezzzz? These tours all have gems Deep in this hemmed in and psychedelic uncle john, the devils totally jockey for momentum and the chordal instruments wobble the car on either side of the rail amid the relentless churn of a freezing Charles River.
