this one is a gimme for Hornsby's jumpstart chops which makes for a devastating affair with jer and the guys lockin' in.

Laconic and textural, devils hang loose. Chasms of endless spirals of blank fear only to be boingy wackjob cyberjazz, menacing, for OG 90's heads

High spirited and activated septet playing. Lengthy tonal solo and manic 7/4 takeoff

Blazing steamroller, Hornsby, flutterbird PITB. Elegant, direct, emblematic of the late style.

Just gave another listen to this absolutely incredible jazzy Playin', certainly in my top 5 of all time. Absolute must-listen. Put it on right now.

dead is such a boy's club, and it's annoying. Make some room for the rest of us. Anyway, it's quite the red hot beat it.

Fat, mean, jazzy outrageous Caution craziness. Essential for fans of 60's Dead, premium example of free psych!

Wow. Just wow. Exemplary poker-hot truckin', along with me and my uncle, showing these francophones what some root-tootin 12-gauge shootin' Good Ole Grateful is all about.
