The 1985 Listening Post - The Prisoners - The Last Fourfathers

The Prisoners - The Last Fourfathers



#253/904
1985 Housekeeping
The Prisoners
The Last Fourfathers
Genre: Psychedelic Garage
4.75 out of 5
Highlights:
Thinking of You (Broken Pieces)
FOP
This is an incredible album inasmuch as it sounds EXACTLY like the music it wants to sound like: Late 60s, Strawberry Alarm Clock Psychedelic, Hammond Organ Garage Rock.
They do it so well I swear it was made IN 1968 instead of 1985. And I love having it on. It’s sort of spectacular, even if it is fully emulating the past.
I think The Prisoners are a tad late to the party. I mean, The Jam had called it quits by this time and the scene had moved on, hadn’t it? But, wow do they get it right.
