Heavy Petting

Nu slechts € 14,99 On their first album, Irish band Doctor Strangely Strange declared themselves to be ''strangely strange but oddly normal,'' and by their time of their second effort, 1970's Heavy Petting, it's possible that ''oddly normal'' no longer applied. The spiritual cousins of the Incredible String Band, although less rooted in folk traditions, their music flitted around like a butterfly, rarely settling anywhere for long -- and certainly never for the length of an entire song. ''Gave My Love an Apple,'' for example, begins as a folk ditty, and then morphs into an extended electric bluesy guitar solo that has little to do with what went before. Childlike in its innocence, the album seems eager to taste all the possible flavors of music in a short span, making it a miracle that it holds together at all, let alone as well as it does. For make no mistake, Heavy Petting is something of a hippie joy. Joe Boyd's production is pristine, and the playing is well above the amateur standard of so many bands of the ilk, even if the frequent left turns of the material -- try ''Summer Breeze'' and ''When Adam Delved'' as examples -- makes things disorienting, but in a good way. If you're willing to expect the unexpected, you'll love it. ~ Chris Nickson
