A psychedelic trip of a track, and I’m not the first person to say that. However, it sums it up perfectly. And it’s loops upon loops: the vocals are lifted from ‘Orleans’, a tune from David Crosby’s album ‘If Only I Could Remember my Name’, the lyrics of which are a repeated three line mantra: “Orleans, Beaugency, Notre Dame du Clery, Vendome, Vendome". Around this swirls an acoustic guitar as tense as a spider’s web, and that’s it. There are also some string effects straight outta Abbey Road Studios in the late 60s, and the overall effect is one of spiritual exaltation. Don’t let that put you off though. This is boss.
