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.

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

When you absolutely, positively have to take a RIDE with PHIL- this should do the trick....
Passenger

Field House - Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute

This take has a ton of verve along with that FOTD and a surprisingly wicked Mama Tried. Whole show is a keeper with a JStraw and BP that crush.

Field House - Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute

I'll take a good BEW anyday....and on this day I found and took this one - solid.
Friend of the Devil

Field House - Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute

On Crackstraw's recommendation I came back to hear this again and I do solemnly swear this one is the goods....if you don't mind de patch.
