    This custom LP is a creative collection of heartfelt thoughts. The music sounds like Pink Floyd in their movie, with Bob Geldorf handling lead vocals, or, obviously, the Boomtown Rats. It's basically slow and crafted around the lyrics. It does not have the surface energy of rock music, relying more on the passioned lyrics to create an energy in message.

    The artwork on the cover and in the liner notes is very well done.
