オープニングの「25 O'Clock」は、すぐさまエレクトリック・プルーンズの「I Had Too Much to Dream Last Night」を思い起こさせる。2曲目以降、元ネタはますますわかりにくくなっている。「My Love Explodes」は、サー・ジョン・ジョンズ(アンディ・パートリッジ)とロード・コーネリアス・プラム(デイヴ・グレゴリー)の物々しいギターがカウント・ファイブの「Psychotic Reaction」を彷彿させる。「Bike Ride to the Moon」はそのいかれっぷりからして、ピンク・フロイドの『Piper at the Gates of Dawn』に収録されていてもおかしくない。ホリーズにインスパイアされた「Vanishing Girl」とビートルズ・スタイルのピアノを鳴らす「You're a Good Man Albert Brown」も本作の聴き所のひとつと言える。エンディングを飾る限りなくすばらしい「Pale and Precious」は、ウィルソン兄弟ばりのハーモニーとテルミンに似せた音を用いて、ビーチ・ボーイズが『Smile』セッションで生みだした珠玉の未発表曲のごとく奏でられている。(Paul Ducey, Amazon.com)
The record opens with "25 O'Clock," which instantly recalls the Electric Prunes' "I Had Too Much to Dream Last Night." From there the references become more obscure: the Count Five's "Psychotic Reaction" is invoked by the bombastic guitar sludge of Sir John Johns (Andy Partridge) and Lord Cornelius Plum (Dave Gregory) on "My Love Explodes," while "Bike Ride to the Moon" is demented enough to have appeared on Pink Floyd's Piper at the Gates of Dawn. Other high points include the Hollies-inspired "Vanishing Girl" and the Beatles-style piano stomp "You're a Good Man Albert Brown." The record closes with the priceless "Pale and Precious." With its dead-on Wilson brothers harmonies and faux theremin, the song plays like an undiscovered gem from the Beach Boys' Smile sessions. --Paul Ducey
