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

motorik funk, canvas for intersecting busy bees toddling through manhattan as the wind cools on the new decade, the last before the end of the world. Never mind all that as we hang loose with superb woodshedding sandwiching a dusty roadside episcopal Ship!!!!!
