LOL, normally someone with "Tough Critic" in their username will be viewed as too opinionated, but this is no lie. This is an amazing version! The energy in Scarlet is crazy, just wonderful, and they bring that energy throughout both tunes. What a pleasure to hear on a hot day!

anyone familiar with aquarium drunkard? Great site for modern and old musical findings. This was their most recent "Dead note"--one song from a classic dead recording. Very glad I clicked it!!
