[gentle music] You're listening to 1001 Album Club, where each episode we discuss a different album from Robert Dimery's book, 1001 Albums You Must Hear Before You Die.

[gentle music] Me and my best friend Lillian and her blue tick hound dog get in.

Sittin' on the front porch, coolin' in the shade.

I haven't heard this album for quite a number of years, and for this program I had a good listen to it.

I was surprised how much of it I knew, but I was also surprised, given the carry-on in the text that was written in Robert Dimery's book, I was expecting more.

My first reaction to this was, yeah, I know all this, so what? I heard hints of a lot of the music from the 80s and 90s in it.

I even heard sort of hints of echoes of Birthday Party, bits of prefab Sprout in there, and the drumming.
