#2400 The Chocolate Watchband - Inner Mystique

Shit moved fast in the late 60's - CWB went from standard revival/psych into full, flute/sitar/kitchensink gotta _blow_ _yer_ _mind_ grasping in the span of a year. It all feels a bit overproduced, very effortful. By-the-book adventurousness is worlds better than [normal], and there's some mind-melting stretches, but Inner Mystique lacks the urgency and naturalness of their debut.

More Their Satanic Majesty's Request than Aftermath/Sgt Peppers 3.5/5
