China Cat shines bright with strong transition jam - Jer belts out the headlight line in the Rider and Phil barrel rolls all through the pocket.

Ok so just heard this today on Sirius - Hoooly Shit is all I gotta say - ditto all the above comments take the trip, see for yourself and get yer brain scrambled with some very fine acid jazz - not PITB scrambled but another kind of scrambled. This is alot to process - kitchen sink stuff here -that taken as a whole works, I must admit my taste runs to '69ers and 2/13/70 ... but Keith's accents really do it for me the jam into Sugar Mags is incredible - the deep space mining work at 5:40 > TOO jam is some serious tasty action and the play out of SSDD that cruise missiles into a hot of course Caution?! GTFO. I gotta borrow my wife's car more often.
