Both segments are great, but the Fire is phenomenal....love Brent/Jer on the final jam.

The transition isn't as funky, but this a helluva Franklin's. Brent is pretty funky on this. Loved this combo together!

This is not on the archive and DL put this nugget in the taper's section. What a fuckin' treat if u love this era for the O1 like I do. Oh yeah....and a juicy Cryptical that is required to be truly epic. I am not going to say its as good as 2/13, BUT THIS NEEDS TO BE LISTENED TO NOW before it goes back in the vault.
