2 Drummer breakbeat attack with Phil throwing down the rope a dope and Jer firing darts - this one's lively.

The Spectrum

Admittedly not a favorite tune for me but this is super crispy - laconic delivery by Weir w/ Jer's picking and tone perfection. Whole show is massive.

Totally tasteful horns give this version a sweet lift and roll - feel this would be way higher if it were only heard....plus this is screaming Charlie Murphy! err Miller work ...check it out.

Dead on! Must hear for super cool Phil - freaking great the boys got jazzed out hanging around the horn players.

Loose and dreamy in parts and then funky and groovy in others - a real treat.
