Footnotes
House Dog Party Favor - Multiple passages of experimental jamming out of the House Dog outro finally conclude in a Kamaole peak.
Crickets - The first jam begins in tense territory, moves through a chaotic breakdown and builds to a monster of a peak.
Munchkin Invasion - The jam is strong and thematic from the very beginning, and moves through a passage of strange type two before a beautiful conclusion.
Shem-Rah Boo - A symphonic version. Magner develops another excellent trance-heavy theme right away, and develops it over the course of the jam. He seems to play off of himself, which is interesting and surreal to hear. Soon, Barber comes in with complementary riffs, although the jam remains firmly in Magner’s control, and he leads the jam to its thrilling conclusion.
