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

rounded and loaded, really nice one. Another major yet low key east coast gig.

Habanero cerebral mercury opal meditation on maelstrom winds in the heart's home. Botched transition -Don't be scared. - to a gloriously fluid and tight slip, fountainous eruption of stoically gorgeous garage thrall. Tiger 10000 mph, polychordal pillows of silk form pastrami for the devils to toast their streams of consciousness terraforming the dome and floor. Houston would you like to switch to pleasure bar mode in premium class? Drones doing alpine parkour through deserts in all universes in an indistinguishable simultaneity coaxed into mundanity so as to feel as if flying through rainbow gullies, dunes, caves and such. Magnificent glorious winged machines flutter to new horizons. Baptizing balsam clogged mud boggin' hitch hikin' zip linin' leanto lake side ferry crystalline Franklin's. Frantic, lean and silly putty linkage of simple flight and ambidextrous direct emotion. Organization of communication on the rise

cowboy jer and poetic urban delivery, as if washed clean in the garbage rain of the park
