magnificently kickin and emphatic, layered textures and hot weaving. Tailored for fans of the era's mega polished sound. Rhythmically delicious and perfect solo colored by midi trumpet. Nice vocal

crispy ethereal grace and karmically aligned energy. Are you here? Reminds me of lennon deriding harrison's "I me mine" at twickenham for being a spanish waltz, but then he hated everything.

characteristically excellent, Phil strumming away maniacally masked in superhero cape, fabulous groove and chaw sandwich with habanero bread flow.

Dynamite year for tleo, tune that blossomed in invigorating energy. Calling for broken ones. Jerry was like don't give vince the hammond sound so he rocks a plinky dink midi with grace typical of brent.
