and…The Zimmermen?
This album is straight out of 1969 with it’s Byrds-like Paisley Revival sound, they don’t break any new ground but they write a bunch of pretty darned good songs.
The kind of record you put on when you want to listen to The Stones or REM but are bored with their songs and just wanna hear something like it.
Just a fantastic collection of songs.
