This album does not make any sense and that is what makes it fun!


After all this hippies with anti war messages (I am a pacifist myself but these guys never offer any solutions; the term "armchair analyst" comes to mind), it was nice to get a little nonsense.  Having a musician in this book who doesn't think he knows everything is actually quite the refreshing change.  Lyrics like "i'm like a beggar in the sand with the sky in my hand" are nonsensical but it is okay, because the music is entertaining.  This guy is exactly what the doctor ordered.


RATING: 4/5


Is the song "Get It On" like in a commercial or something?
