Full on love-in psych fest drinking HEAVILY from the acid laced fountain that early Pink Floyd, psych Beatles did. No surprise: this is none other than Les Claypool and Sean Lennon collaborating. It's really pretty good if not super duper derivative of pink Floyd and, well, themselves. All songs epic. Typical claypool bass and silly vocs permeate.

1) (4:40) trippy noise guitar starts this then becomes beautiful soaring atmospheric lilting 2)* (3:52) very 60's pop psych, fun total retro stuff, blends perfectly into next 3) (4:16) dark organ into out of previous, cool rock (play together). 4)* (4:21) FCC? cool standalone bizzarre bass led tune, mildly lewd line about watching someone pee 5)* (5:48) spooky super cool psych rock masterpiece 6) (3:37) bluesy swingy weird rock 7)* (6:00) FCC in outtro 0:36 remaining (pot down easy) bizarre epic weirdness, sounding very les claypool now, claypool bass comes through 8) (5:08) echoey psych fun. 9) (5:03) more psych silly love 10) (4:10) quieter psych ballad with Beatles'y voc efx, throw in David Gilmour guitar riffs 11) (3:27) dark side of the moon shines through like a crazy diamond, almost a cover of the song after Time, play w previous
