          "Om Nama Shivaya" is credited to Kesar Singh Narula and Uma Nanda. It's not a Hillage original.

            I prefer Steve when he's singing and glissing, than messing about with long jams. Okay? I admit that now. Not that I dislike Fish Rising, I still quite enjoy it - the musicianship and riffage is often blistering, fun and memorable - but Steve is simply superior when combining a little of this with songs.

            The Donovan and George Harrison covers are done with such care and a hippy vibe that's simply irresistable. The former is tempered with some classic glissy soloing and jamming, and is a definite highlight.

            But then we come to two Hillage originals: Electrick Gypsies and Om Nama Shivaya. "Who wants to be an electrick Gipsy?" If you have some untenable scruples towards hippy ideals, well... you have no hope, to be honest. You certainly will laugh your arse off at this. Me, I'm a fairly cynical guy, but I love this song. More lovely glissy soloing, spacey synth washes and Steve sings like he means every word. Excellent. :)
