I really like the restraint, the feeling of power caged found in these covers. These are especially evident in my favourite track, Locked in the trunk of a car. The build, the spare instrumentation and then a chunky guitar comes in ... so fabulous.

As a lifelong fan of psyche, I was delighted to have found this, stunned that I'd missed them for three decades and devastated by the news of Dallas' passing. Makes many of the album's lyrics even more poignant. I hear echoes of the Chocolate Watch Band, Long Ryders and both the pop and country sides of the Byrds. Stunning, and a contender for my album of the year.

This is my favourite song from the original album; when I listened to both side-by-side I was blown away by how much better the little changes in mixing here make an already classic song!
