Easy breezy with the glinty afterglare of yore. Drifty transition to boot. Nice twilight septet memory making.

Hard hat 92, bluegrass plinky. Alchemical goop-laden improv. bluesy panache.

touching simplicity of row bridges the bullet-train nowness of this ripping bizarre banger. Post-capitalist freako jazz hair metal..

pigpen's Hammond B3 punctuation on the "comin' around" section is quite nice. Pre-verse is sloppy. Post-verse has a rather excellent sense of vietnam era menace... guess I didnt smoke enough DMT to break thru. Fascinating version.
