2/5
Jam bands seem very masturbatory. The people involved seem to be very talented, but I don't think anyone needed an extended vamp on the Ghostbusters theme song, among other things.

2/5
One of the roughest albums I've ever heard. Cursory research has revealed that the album was recorded directly into a cassette boom box, and I can't fathom why. The songs seem to do a lot of meandering in the lyrics. Mildly curious to listen to one of the albums with a full band instead of one man and a boom box.
