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.

Besides BDubs vocal stylings - Keith is the real key (and glue) to this stellar version.
Friend of the Devil

Bouncy and sweet - superlative FOTD compared to the later slow dirges...Must be one of the jazziest FOTD's I've heard.
