Standout Tracks: Gotta Cheer Up / Blood Red Sentimental Blues / Some Strange Rain


I basically enjoy any and everything that Mike Nau composes and I seem to have jumped onto the psych wave over the last year as well. Granted, most of these tunes aren't as upbeat as the old Page France material, but they are pretty soothing and fantastic. Paranoid Cocoon, is out today via Suicide Squeeze.
