This is the first studio album from The Fuzztones with Screaming Jay since bad diagnosis in 1984. On Leave Your Mind At Home (live) album, The Fuzztones with Screaming Jay have renewed their membership in the ‘if it ain’t broke…’ school of songwriting. Since completing 1984’s ‘Voices Green & Purple’, The Fuzztones with Screaming Jay fulfilled their contract with Capitol Records and where under no obligation to release another album. Lots of variety between tracks. My favorite is Blackout Of Greetly
Blackout Of Greetly is the albums biggest surprise. This track is clearly meant to showcase The Fuzztones with Screaming Jay’s vocal abilities. In We’re Pretty Quick The Fuzztones with Screaming Jay spins a tale you want to hear to the end. Strong percussion and poignant lyrics of this track really gets under your skin. Music and lyrics of The Bag I’m In creates, for me, fertile ground for daydreaming. After you’ve listened to You Burn Me Up & Down, most everything else can’t hold up and is second rate. Alligator Wine - I Put Spell On You is an underrated song: I like its lyrics and melody a lot. It’s That Time Again (5:17) - Oh, this is one of my favorites! This track is almost perfect, instrumentals and vocals combine awesomely.
