Wooden Wand releases his 20th album (so I'm told) and I thought we'd write about it. This one is on Ecstatic Peace and it features Steve Shelley & Lee Ranaldo playing with their own instruments. Nice. I was expecting something more far out when I heard this and it's pretty much straight Dylan, T Rex 60's style folk rock. There's some decent tunes on there though which makes it all most listenable. Occasionally it's punctuated by some hideous sounding guitar which needs to be shot. Played with soul though, which is very apparent. 'James & The Quiet' is a decent long player.

Love this record? Hate it? Tell us.
