Here´s a review:
After the delightful debut "We Are Ever So Clean", the Blossom Toes changed their naive-side and became a remarkable underground act with tighter arrangements...The avant-garde experimentalism is still intact and the lyrics reflecting the social buried-dream of the sixties coda are so perfectly ecclectic like little else in psychedelic-rock, yet not inaccessible...The magnificient spooky intro of "Peace Loving Man" and the linked "Kiss of Confusion" is so enduring in my memory as the first time I heard this, always discovering new things (new sounds) in these well-crafted songs; the fine "Listen To The Silence", an answer to Paul Simon's "Sound of Silence" delicacy (?) and the stunning couple of extended tracks, "Love Bomb" and "billy Boo The Gunman" or the sitar-driven joy of "Just Above My Hobby Horse's Head"... A CLASSIC!!! To everyone with an appetite for psychedelic music, this is a MUST!!!
