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

Regaling and replenishing of spirit, a summer's grove horseback trot fable of post-journey whimsy and hunter murkiness

magically great rendering. Masterful jerry lead performance travelling through time whisking up dewy-eyed remembrances, spectacular weir fireworks and enough melodic phil to entrance james jamerson or simon gallup, dave holland even. Fuck these guys got a MASSIVE sound chronologically this couldn't be more in the thick of the story.. JG said that every house in the haight was blasting both 65 dylan albums religiously while everyone was coming up

One of those towering colossus golden leafed Zeus bolt comes a times... weight of a thousand nine pound hammers. Haunting stuff
