You can always tell a good album as the songs are instantly familiar and recognisable. For me, every track on the album is in this category. Good to hear others are also enjoying it :heart_eyes:

Some sunny summer arvo music - my favourite Neil Young On the Beach. It is actually pretty downbeat but it was the soundtrack to plenty of good times. Reprise riverboat UK vinyl.

Great cover too- the buried caddy tail fin, the newspaper headline and carrying the brolly material thru to the sleeve insides.

More songs that remind me of Fela Kuti than of, say, King Sunny Ade, but it’s none the worse for that. It’s also better recorded and mastered than many.
