Acoustic guitars! What?!? Iâm pretty sure that very early teenage me thought this intro was amazing. So when the Electric Guitar and Drums enter, they do so with Aplomb. To put it mildly. The guitar is HUGE. The riff is HUGE. All Of This And Nothing - the bandâs most ambitious piece, at that juncture. 6 minutes 23 seconds.
A phonebook full of accidents
A girl to drive your car
A suit to wear on Mondays
And a coat a magazine
A heavy rain a holiday
A painting of the wall
A knife, a fork and memories
A light to see it all
You didn't leave me anything
That I can understand
Itâs pretty great, really great, and then, well, it doesnât *quite* deliver the money shot.
Hey, I never meant that stuff
I want to turn you round
But then the final, excellent conclusion
Now I'm left with all of this
A room full of your trash
Maybe a touch too much sax, but lovely.
The band that refuses to be a rock pop band makes an almost perfect rock pop album.
I'm pretty sure my first band started almost right after this. I couldn't play for shit, but then, I didn't NEED to.

aka the best "plenty of time to put this one on, leave the booth, go to the bar, get back for the next" track of all time. your favorite DJ's favorite deep cut, all nearly-ten-minutes of it.

đ§This is one of the greatest proto-psych rock albums of all time. 1971. Bunch of 1st generation black British dudes from former colonies. Crazy album and crazy story. They disappeared as the album was nearing completion. There was no follow up album, no nothing, they never reappeared. The name of the album comes from the fact that the label decided to put the music out after not being able to find them for a while because it was so good that âWe Had To Let You Have Itâ. I know this because I have an original copy on vinyl and there is a handwritten note printed on a piece of paper inside the sleeve.
The track âRainâ is for my money one of the best songs written in this genre from that era. If they had been a popular band, I think it would be considered a classic.
Also, I dare you to listen to the song âThe Systemâ and tell me Lynyrd Skynyrd didnât lift the main lick of the Free Bird solo from it. Yeah, I said it.

điâve heard that in europe everything is close together and the countries are so small, so it doesnât take long to get anywhere. but in the US you can go hours and hours of driving with nothing but desolate roads and the occasional podunk town. some of the best things are in those empty long miles
