A certain 70’s funky/soul permeates this CD that’s tough to finger as psyche and garage elements infuse it as well. Low fi feel (or is that my computer’s shitty sound card?). “Sly Stone meets Captain Beefheart”. A dash of early Pink Floyd and a final slathering of Stevie Wonder. Beyond cool.

1) (4:17) downtempo funky fun beat
2) (4:45) a bit more uptempo, certain retro flare to I, kina long fadeout
3) (4:10) cool sixties pop flare to it
4) (3:24) slower swingier and kinda smarmy
5) (3:28) uptempo soul/funky, bass and vocals have a fro, cool phase shifting
6)(2:16) garagey dancey fun, great song but I think theres FCCs (?)
7) (3:01) sexy swingy downtempo beat, nice
8) (2:24) funky dunky!
9) (2:25) full on psyche garage guitar and acid laced early pink floydyisms, weird sounds, awesome
