Revisiting the Good Ol Days

"After school, late sixties, Friday night. My buddy and I are upstairs listening to the latest LPs. He whips out this album. Strange cover, a weird kind of mellowness to the music but combined with solid driving jazz grooved guitar riffs, very West coast. Topanga canyon, never heard of it until then, but as the warm distorted flow of the mescaline would start to kick in and the sun was just starting to go down, I watched the world from my own Topanga window. If I listen to this album today, I can almost feel that time again. God I miss the sixties and being a punk experimenting with anything and everything. This album represents an insightful trip into a time that will never come again."
