Can't believe I'm submitting this. Long and fun drum circle that's notable because our Jer Bear whips out a steel pan and joins in.

this one is worthy, jerry steers the ship. Phil all over the fretboard. Glorious, levitating, atmospheric. not the best of the month, even so, there is plenty to fawn over in this excellent version. Plenty of squishmeister, great textural backing, and devils awesomeness.
