This is an amazing album. It's so well produced and sounds beautiful on vinyl.
If you remember Kula Shaker from the 90's then this album and the previous album, Strangefolk were materpeice comeback albums... lots of energy.
Thier latest offering however K2.0 is somewhat of a dissapointent to me.
Anyway, if you can... have a listen.
