Reviews
Am I the first reviewer? Well, let's see. I wasn't expecting to like this, that it would be typical 70s garbage experimental, drug fuelled rock. Instead I thought it was great. It's down to earth, poignant and vulnerable. Full of good guitar work (acoustic, Spanish and electric), masterful songwriting with a seamless blend of humour, romance and melancholy. Pleasantly surprised. The snap of that telecaster in "Rapid Roy" is making me desire that butterscotch blonde telecaster I've been looking at for a while now. Where's my credit card?!
It's fine
Harmless enough but I won’t be back
