专辑介绍

by Peter Kurtz

Psychedelic-folk debut from one of the most erudite, literate minds in rock, Thomas D. Rapp (and the first of his ever-changing Swine). Although the songs here lack some cohesion, this is still a stunning piece of work, from the nightmarish sleeve art -- the &Hell Panel& from Hieronymus Bosch's 15th century painting &Garden of Delights& -- to the strange yet powerful songs. &Another Time,& the most memorable selection, is an understated acoustic song, the first that Rapp ever penned, based on his experience in a horrific car crash where he walked away unscathed. Of similar mood is the beautiful &Ballad of an Amber Lady.& &Drop Out& is a straightforward song built around a popular credo of the '60s. &Uncle John& is one of the earliest protest songs about the Vietnam War. Strangest (and funniest) of all is &(Oh Dear) Miss Morse,& where Rapp adopts a Victorian persona and sounds out the Morse code spelling of F-U-C-K, accompanied by banjo and Farfisa organ.

Considering Rapp's fascination with history, it's not surprising that one of the songs here, &I Shall Not Care,& features a co-writer credit to &Roman Tombs.& The cryptic words that comprise this song's title were discovered on a tomb that dates to the final days of the Roman Empire.
