Jens - "If you've seen me Lately, please tell me where I've Been" (Goddamn I'm A CountryMan Records 2006, 007)
From Aural Innovations #34 (August 2006)
Jens, the keyboard player in the Spacious Mind, Cauldron, Holy River Family Band, etc, is back with his second solo record on the Goddam I'm a Countryman Records label. It features some of the members of the above bands as well as a beautiful female voice (Linnea) who sings the same vocal lines as Jens speaks and this works very effectively. The music is very tranquil and beautifully composed. The opening track is really a brilliant mix of spacey stuff, beautiful music and back to the psychedelic vibe. Very much inspired by late 60's psychedelic folk rock. Very interesting lyrics as well to tune into. If you are in the right mood, this is amazing stuff.
