You know the crew is feeling spritely and in a cowboy mood when they play this, blessed frequently in '89 with it.

Sweet, sweet, down-home and yokey Jerry.

Pigpen cut revived for the 90's with the group in kind of a slow crawling king snake vibe. Vince knows how to lay down some organ. Top late form.

automatically dank and heady, slow sphere orb help gives way to very hot Mothership jamming. Shadows breath of a smooth franklins>same thing with barrelhouse mariokart vibes to boot.

the glinting pain of recognition, seminal feeling of candyman or black peter on this, something to rile up the go down moses in ye. Tinky plinky plonkies to go round, kickin tempo and generally well-oiled makes for another great example of the tour's hot moments.

Generous melt into this smoldering EP. Heady weir rap. Leers and simmers over with jazzy funky midi.
