Good Morning, Whiskey Breakfast

...we can admit when we're a little slow. This is one that we've been hearing about for quite a while now and, well, we just got a little lazy spending any time with it. Finally, we took time out and dug into The Esther Caulfield Orchestra's Good Morning Whiskey Breakfast. Culling from a veritable smorgasboard of vintage influences (The Kinks, Cream, Barrett-era Floyd, etc...), this disc seems to be sowing similar soil to contemporaries Dr. Dog or Dungen. The diversion, however, comes in TECO's unrepentant infatuation with the countrified rock served up on The Byrd's classic, Sweetheart of the Rodeo. Also, their particular brand of psychedlia doesn't trade in substance for style. Hopefully we'll be hearing more from these guys soon...

...oh, you can pick the disc up on a donation basis from The Esther Caulfield Orchestra RIGHT HERE!!! It also comes with complete artwork and liner notes!!!
