Personal Thoughts

This was the second album recommended to me by the guy who recommended Hot Rats in our weekly exchange. I really liked this one, it would be a great listen on any relaxing day or solo drive. I found the dreary, mystical vibe created by the synthesizer and the reverberation of the lyrics to be quite enjoyable. My favorite track was Cop Killer.
