      @Philthy one of the things that I think Spafford "gets" is the idea of engaging the fans in these kinds of sing alongs. Salamader and Galisteo both have these great crowd response parts that new fans can pick up on during first listen.

      I remember being at Some Kind Of Jam and watching the fans 'get it' during the encore. You could actually see it click that there was a part for them and even though it was 2am they walked out of there dancing and smiling.

                  "Late night morning haze take my hand
                  through the trees up the stairs to the sand.
                  Stars start to slip and squander the calm.
                  Blue tarp, wild eyed puddle in my palm."
                  -- Slip and Squander

                  Chuck's lyrics here are just so beautiful to me. Red's delivery and the peak that Brian (and the band) build to is absolutely sublime. The tension and release... I mean... this is what songwriting is all about.

                    Listening to @zman's recording of Brooklyn Bowl "All In"

                    "Sure footing long ago gave way to flash erosion, I was there to watch it burn."

                    I love the way the lyrics are packed with meaning, imagery, and they fit into the rhythm of the song. Great stuff.
