Acid Archives:
Highly enjoyable smalltown hippie folk/folkrock with a professional sound, good vocals and songs full of hooks and strong melodies. A dreamy melancholy dominates, but the sharp arrangements and elaborate production keeps it from ever drifting off. Lyrics deal with dope and being in prison, which is a true story & probably what kept him off major labels. Higgins received a severe 2-year-9-month sentence for possession of weed, but had time to record this album shortly before going to jail. "Red Hash" is a nickname he aquired when being in custody. Underrated LP is a personal fave and better than almost all the overpriced items in this genre. To illustrate Higgins' qualities I'm picking two different fave tracks than Aaron does below; "Stable the Spuds" and the closing "Looking for June". Do not miss this. Some copies came with promo sheets with newspaper clippings about Higgins' trial. [PL]
