Sneaky good! The St. jam to me is close to perfect it stretches out and builds nicely.

Bird Song alert - delivers everything that's stated above - check it and you will see. Really, really nice one here.

'81 had some killer Althea's (Hi Essen!) and if you check out these two sleepers you might dig them - 4/10/83 & 9/4/83 (dark Bobby work on this one)

On Darkstar's recommendation on another list - this here does indeed scorch with Jerry firing sweet flares... love it!
