Well produced alt-rock. kinda laid back, “accessable”.This band’s got a ton of history behind it, making music for 20 years or so- at least they were active in the 80’s don’t know about the 90s.
1.ten-second into to track 2
2.nice got some piano but not very substantive.
3. got some lectric organ making it sound a little 60’s psyche, harmonized vocals a little XTC-ish
4. wow! trippy beginning! I wish the whole song was this! play the first half, then play it again the rest of the song seems pretty blah, too pompus.
5. hippie music! donovan gets a mild hip-hop beat.
6.disco Dawn? she’s a cutie! oh they can’t be serious can they? more donovan-ishness, 60s
7. synth instrumental- think spinal tap when you see stonehenge
8.expansive ELO-style synths, new age fusion, someone at this station will love this, we should find that person and provide counseling.
9. regular pop song, big contrast from prior track. “hey hey hey” chorus!
10.3/4 time, some fem vox, pretty
11.somewhat rockin’
12.disco-rock
13.pretty instrumental
15.minor key mid-fas city music
16. piano and synth, slower, night music
17.quiet intro, night music. some sax
18.swampy rock
19.happy hippy rock
20. nice driving
