Really? Lowell George, et al? Wow, neat piece of info. |

A fair few negative comments, but none of them use more than 2 words to say why...
I like, I'm curious what there is to _not_ like about this song. Sure, it's a little obscure, welcome to RP ;)

I like it and I don't know why... probably the soundtrack quality. Moody Blues meets LOTR meets Procol Harem... An 8.

Loved the tune.. thought it was new trying to be old.. then looked up the album.. was suprised the amazon review said another song was the best from the album... from the samples, this seemed to be the best of it.. But then again.. time changes things, people listened differently then than now, as I'm sure they'll listen differently in the future...
this can also be found on a GREAT cd called Fragments Of A Rainy Season....has LOTS of great cale stuff...hallelujia , you've got the style it takes, i keep a close watch on this heart of mine...all that and more. worth finding. (someone stole my copy, so if you get one, maybe you can dub it for me. ;))

I listen to this station now ALL the time...because it helps me stay current on new music...and can reach back and play John Cale (thanks....and try to find Gideon's Bible to play in the future) and artists like Robyn Hitchcock, to name two that have been played today that remind me what good programming means on radio! Programming that can only be done by those who love music without prejudice.

This has been the worst several hours of RP radio I've heard since I've been listneing. Very few glimmers of good music.

OK I usually prefer positive comments, but that was pretty horrid. Wouldn't be bad to shelve that one for a while.
