Negative Positive
Title: excellent
Review: The motis operendi of Rotery Connection is to take popular songs of their era, the late 1960s, and transform them. On this twofer,they do so with material from Aretha Franklin, Cream and Hendrix.This music is altered so much as to be unrecogniable. On "Respect," the band uses sensual strings and plays the song at half tempo. "Sunshine of Your Love" has the famous bass/guitar line removed and is also turned into a erotic, orchestral dirge.And orchestration is the name of the game with Rotery Connection. But this is not rock or R&B; turned easy listening. The arrangements feature silky, ensamble vocals, and the string charts take on a dark, psychadelic flavor. This sounds more like David Axlerod than Montavoni.Conceptually and in practice, this is gripping psychadelic music.
