Eerie. this jerry-driven version is mired in the paranoia of imminent doom with the wink of cyberjazz. Reaches a to1-esque crater of solemn peace.

yet another symphonic slammer. Deeply meant.

First rate. Excellent group blend, they're ready for the fireworks of the two years to follow

80s are a goldmine for LLR's, this one wirey, lustrous and cinematic.

welcome wink of a heel-diggingly true pure rendering. Spiky and down home like jerry and hunter's best evocations of timeless tribulation and delitez.

Perfect, thoughtful, volcanic, placid, all of the above. Melty goopy and funky. Tells a story in sound painting. I really like this song... has that LLR, let it grow uber earnest Barlow thing in spades. The theatrics on this splendid version take Indy to giddy new heavens, the floor loses it for jerry, but then when don't they. Shout out to weir for a triple shot of great jams

hard edged and sartorially minded, silk lapels and starched cuffs. Phil is having a field day, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yXO5TqfWf6s
