Synopsis

Product Description

A few years ago, a massive CD box set of backing tracks and partial mixes from The Beach Boys' Pet Sounds recording sessions was issued. That's what much of Hey Friends sounds like. In fact, in the topsy-turvy alternate world of Kelpie it's possible that the boys abducted Brian Wilson, provided him with a sandbox filled with hallucinogens, and recorded the resulting jam session. It's liquid sunshine filtered through acid-tinged glasses. And while he's not credited on the disc, Sgt. Pepper must have pieced together the ambitious harmonies, delirious lyrics, funhouse piano, and odd drum patterns while blindfolded.

Not honest

"I do not enjoy this cd. I find it flat and boring. This cd is not an honest attempt on the part of the writer to give homage to his influences (The Beatles) or to incorporate his influences (The Beatles) into his own voice. This is not the writer's own voice. This is John Lennon's voice; this is Paul McCartney's voice. It's unfortunate. The cd is boring because the songs are beyond derivative. You can listen to each song and hear the Beatle's song it came from. The writer is obviously technically talented and has a good ear for texture; however, he is hiding his expression behind this form. I would very much like to hear this band again in a few years to see if the writer has become more vulnerable and honest. It is very scary to show yourself through your music, but unless you do your work is boring."
