Bracing gust of sludgy icicles of pathos... Another intrinsically momentous and starkly emotional jerry number that aged like wine. Solo howls with catharsis

crystal ball weeper, yet another upvoted sinewy Peggy with surefire tiger work. Mind crushingly gorgeous peak with a screaming descending lick at 4:54. Huge first set needs more votes

brent's mic is out but nonetheless ferocious from the ultimate era for this barnstormer lesh kiss-off!!! Trippin on pearly stardust thru the house-shaking rickety gas station grid tied and concrete churned night

Dewy-eyed, ascendant, Jer pickin' his consciousness to shreds for assembled congregations of espers. Swooshy frequencies and nice n slow.
