Short and sweet and kinda quaint as this was the third time ever, still a work in progress... into a very good Day Job!

Crikey! Brilliant! One of the finest ever stand-alone NFAs.

Super super strong. Robust shredding. Methodical but wild, lumbering but savage. Could be number one stand-alone Stephen of '77... (though close to 5/5). Bonus tracks of Dick's 10, with sick '77 Estimated-Eyes, into rocking Sugar Mags. Reality is, nothing was finer than the finest Stephen-Elevens, as gorgeous and perfect a fit as anything, a marriage equal to Scarlet-Fire, China-Rider.... But this is nice and long and epic and close enough to pretend.... (though Stephen-NFA-Stephen was a great pair, too...! Shoulda done it more...) And Wolf was ridiculous, gave him that raw Heavy Metal lightning.......
China Cat Sunflower -> I Know You Rider

The Zenith

Just remembered! This is already released on 30 Trips... but still, Europe 90 Box would be nice....
