Serpentine Fire

1. Serpentine Fire***+ [3:51](M. White, V.White, S.Burke): The first single release from All-N-All is a hard-hitting danceable, Afro-Latin influenced mid-tempo jam. Similar groove to Drum Song (See: https://ewf70to84.tripod.com/openoureyes/id7.html). Complex bass lines, low-pitched guitars seem inaudible at first, but they add filling to the mostly percussive texture of this jam. Horns dart in and out of earshot. A cowbell overrides the mix giving "Serpentine Fire" added grit. Funky styled lead vocals the hook is falsetto harmony and the melody is contagious.
