As this late summer day moves along it hints at the fleeting season and the impermanence we share. The solos are the soundtrack for these feelings, capturing both the passing of time and the extended celebration of the moment. If ever I return… who knows, but this version rows me out to that place, every time.

6/19 perhaps, though not 23 mins. Fanfrickintastic! - as the description says.

As this transition gets going, Phil tosses on the cordwood. As Jerry’s flames begin to emerge and reach upward, Keith’s sprinklings rise like sparks, while Billy’s rhythmic pulses seem to synchronize the whipping of the flames. And Bob, yeah, he’s like a bellows pumping oxygen into this thing the whole time. Brilliant bonfire. Step back and enjoy the heat.
