Beefy stetson hat workout. Ravishing harp and fun fender deluxe reverb tones.

Not unheard of to go into this after scarlet fire (34 times) still, something of a wacky pranksterish reset. Speedy and powerful version with growl.

Devils come alive. Joy ride to wirepickin' ecstatic oblivion. Furiously active yet not autobahn, deep 80s

Great one. Kits duet is really inspired. Space curdles out with noise but gets jester's hat nightmare with vocal pranks. Beautiful long bluesy intro

To Lay Me Down

heartbreakingly gorgeous and huge towers of sound on this amazing To lay me down!!! A reverent, mournful paean to the travellers of yore in their generosity, a butterfly's wings.

Transitive astral DS from the heat of summer 74, zapped your way coming out of around and around and into US blues, a wacky yet ever so heady comination. Phil Jerry and Bill are richocheting about each other in the manner of fumes of finely ground spices, each in the other's multi-fractal shaped and midnight sky-lit wake.
