All right, first of all: who the hell has heard of Shuggie Otis? This is one of those picks from the list that will no doubt fuel my dad's opinion that this list is incredibly pretentious since I guess this guy was never popular to the masses. At least we have avoided disco so far, that is all I have to say.
Anyway, I think the reason this album is so obscure is just because it is so…meh. There is some mildly interesting psychedelic funk in this album but, come on Shuggie, get with the program. This is no longer 1967.
Not astonishing, not awful. Will most likely forget about it in two to three weeks.
RATING: 3/5
