Start with the plastic factory song and sure nuff yes I do.
Appreciate the poetry. Then go into his other stuff. He had all them minute long songs
on trout mask because he found if the music got too steady and hypnotising
he was playing to the hypnotised. Thats why he changed time signatues
so much , he wanted to make music for people who were awake.
So as soon as you listen to a song and get stuck in the rythemic head nod he changed.
He thought it was cheesy playing to head nodders.
I think you have to get that about him going in.
Im a huge fan but still some of his stuff makes my ears angry.
