Re: [b] -- da bestest



Highlights on first listen:
The bit beginning at 1:45 is fucking punk rock!
Pulled down the tempo wisely at 3:00
The minor switch at 3:57
<insert some great recorder moments here>
Return of the punk at 5:45
Extended trill at 7:00 (?)
And a nother in the bass register shortly thereafter
8:20-out  yikes

Thanks masked man,

David
