I've always wished to hear an extended version of the ending solo...

oops - the robot pulled the definition for Souvenir instead of the band profile. Pretty interesting, actually

this is such a cool album, love their vibe! this reminds me of the old series 'The Man from U.N.C.L.E' for some reason (RIP Robert Vaughan)
 

Bumped my rating up two points based on the Man from U.N.C.L.E. reference. Spot on!

Damn, where has this been all my life? Love how RP teaches me something new every time.

A DJ friend of mine spliced out an excerpt from this epic cut for my first professional radio station's sign-off ID cart. Played it every night at 1 a.m. after a six hour shift alone in a small rural FM station in SW Va. Just imagine hitting the power off switch at the end of the song. Good times.

"I dislike this guy's voice is because it is a panty-burner."

Hilarious!

I like the extremely fat, fuzzy guitar pedal throughout. It's a good combination with the highlighted bass and synthesizer.

I love how you guys mix in instrumentals and classical/neo-classical pieces. So refreshing to long-time listeners! I started with a 7 on this one.

What is this supposed to mean? What is the cornfield? What would a cornfield want with a song?
 

A reference to a classic Twilight Zone episode featuring Billy Mummy before Lost in Space. Boy, do I feel old remember that!

60's pop always brightens my day

Remember hearing this on the air back in the late 80's, wishing it was played more often.
Posted 7 years ago by Quixx_II:
before complaining about the ending, remember the context - this was a two-album concept piece, and the sting set up the next song. My first rock album...
