day 180: Come Down Easy

Come Down Easy, by Spacemen 3.

The fun thing about this song is that I think there might be a few different iterations of it on different Spacemen 3 records? Like, why do the lyrics online say “In 1987…” if my memory of them singing “In 1986…” is so clear? Or maybe I was, uh, following their instructions a little too closely at times when I was listening to this music closer to 1996 and 1997, but whatever.

This song is a simple blues thing that gets weird and psychedelic, because that’s what this band does with lots of songs.

I probably should’ve done more mixing to start out clean and ramp up the psychedelics on this track, but I did not, so it’s spaced out from the jump.

And a little hot on one of the vocal tracks apparently? I did not catch that until I heard the video. Deal with it.
