The Golden Grass - The Golden Grass

Golden But Green

Another retro-rock trio - 'powered' perhaps, but I think that's an overstatement - yet certainly dealing in golden-oldie rock revisitings and, to embrace the graminoid metaphor, as green as that rock grass has always been. On a first listen of the streamed album [you can find it here] I like the opening track Please Man best with its tinge of Steamroller, and second Stuck On A Mountain has some fine dual guitar work. By third One More Time the lyric 'easy rider woman' wears its generic inclinations a little overtly on its psychedelic sleeve, but you shouldn't be listening if you're expecting more than this sonically sartorial sixties show.
