The fasting showman Posted December 7, 2023 Share Posted December 7, 2023 I've always enjoyed playing along to this one; with the sine wave generator giving a nod to psychedelia I'd always thought it was a Norman Whitfield production but it predates that period. Listening to all these songs I find it incredible what I'd not picked up on for years, decades even. The way the wurlitzer piano starts the verses but an accordion takes over; bizarre. The ingenuity in these records never fails to impress me, probably accounts for why I'm such a retro grouch. It's a body of songs that's got it all ( for my taste anyway) great songwriting, great playing as in playing simple parts often but with great feel, innovation in the production and details that reveal themselves after repeat listening. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
