This entire collection is truly exceptional! Hard to pic a favorite. Listening in the northern hemisphere autumn of 2023, all the songs have an "autumnal" vibe, despite the album's conceit. Just a great collection of music.

Martin Newell is a genius with very few equals, author and performer of countless inventive and charming underground pop gems. But what’s truly amazing is the longevity of his creativity.

I'm still a little blown away by the fact that one of my guitar influences released an instrumental guitar album on the same day as me and I didn't realize it. But I've listened to it twice now and it gets better with every play. In places it's like Syd Barret, Robby Krieger, and the Penguin Cafe Orchestra are having a jam session.
