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.

Playfully different melody here really cool Jer is sporting very catchy phrasing - mid tempo no hurry super chill with highlights.

Fans of this combo - give this one a listen then vote up. Clear as a bell dealing with hi energy, fluid vibe just as the man who found it states so succintly. Super nicely exploring jam into Fire.
