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

Fancy fretwork and pickin' on this standalone....clear and concise in the mix! Fine early '80s example.

Lots of soldering and welding WEIRdness here - different and far out from the usual style.

Hey Crow this one is tight right? Let me know what you think of the 3/23/72 - I think it might be the perfect one...I love some of the later shark attack JS's in the late 70's and speedy early 80's but damn if '72 really wasn't THE year for Jacks.

Very,very good like this one alot - the outro intro into the TOO is spectacular - also like 11/22/72 - check that one out and tell me what you think. Right now that one's my favorite.

This is the Thomas' English muffin version right here - so many damn nooks and crannies - love them all. Just letting it go and getting weird in the best way. Take the ride and see. You're going to need a rest after this one...
