Man, "I Need Some Money" is such a great album. I mean not like grab you by the shirt and shake you great, just a relaxed, funky gem.

"i don't want nobody" might have to be my official jam of the year.

YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS

I mean, goddamn what a song. Almost sounds like something Robert Wyatt could've been involved with.

Silver Cycles is worth having just for the title track

Yeah that and Swiss Movement are both cool (their version of "Compared to What" is fucking great). As is Silver Cycles! Title track is almost Terry Riley-esque delay experiment...

BTW glad you liked that track, mark!

@hawkwindz : that track totally put me back into the groove this week.
after weeks of misery and black mood music i needed a kick.

hence the newfound love for byrd etc
