  1. I still don';t remember but it's as cool as the lava lamp that was surely illuminating the room within which it was played. I will remember to listen to the dull and ignorant from now on. They do have their own story.

  2. I found this record at a Uncle Tony's Donut Shoppe in Orlando, FL (a killer record store specializing in rare finds). It was labeled "xian psych," which really piqued my interest. I was pleased to discover its idisoyncratic, psychedelic life lessons set to a mostly-groovy backing, paired with an impossibly square choir that sounds like the Church Ladies that the band precisely isn't. The result is like seeing your grandma at Woodstock, and it's pretty righteous.
