This is the exact kind of music I would expect to hear playing in the waiting room of the psychiatrist’s office in the 1980 PBS version of The Lathe of Heaven.
It’s not futuristic but there are enough synth-spacey keyboards for you to *think* it’s contemporary. But it’s cheesy. Like a movie that had no budget but big ideas in 1980.
This is the album Elton John keeps trying to not make. But I know, if he tries really hard, he could hit the bottom and find a “City of Swimming Pools” to include on a record.
