The Coachmen: The Coachmen on Holiday in Septimania!

Wonderfully primitive. Dreamy drones alternate with fuzz guitar assults. The two sides come together in track 15. Instrumentals except for the Lou Reed in French-esque vocals on track 3.

   Dear Bob,
   Thanks very much for the incisive (and concise) words on Coachmania! Especially glad you appreciated the kazoo excess of “Roger Wilco” (track 11). “Wonderfully primitive” is high praise–and remarkable how much finagling (and how much acumen on Frank Difficult’s part) it takes just to end up at “primitive”…
