Album Notes & Community Reviews

Merging their traditional old-time roots with an expanded, fully electric band, the eccentric Greenwich Village duo delivered a bizarre, chemically altered masterpiece. Famously featuring the track 'Bird Song'鈥攚hich gained immortality through the film 'Easy Rider'鈥攖he album is a surreal, chaotic collision of rural Americana and avant-garde psychedelia.
