Whopping marimba-laden, a hot, and wobbly excursion into '84 Space. Luxuriantly gorgeous though threatening.

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.

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.
