from the album "Uniform"
she hides her heart under the pillow
waiting for the good fairy to come
replace this worn and broken thing
with a heart that can feel again
she's never sure which night will be her lucky one
but she anticipates…

Cool feel on this one, like Dino Jr. Meets Neil young ragged glory era. Great guitar sound
Love the cool time time shifts on this one. A little bit of a qotsa groove
It's a foot tapper for sure.
Rocks! Love it.
Wow, that was a bit of a trip!
Sounds like you and Neil been in the same ditch. That is a compliment.
Not easy to sustain interest over an extended jam like this, but it did for me.
AN EXCELLENT RPM
