    Arguably the greatest and maddest UK psychedelic 45 of them all: 4 or 5 or maybe 6 zonked tunes welded deftly into an intense hallucinogenic roller coaster ride, with backwards sitars, fairground organs, pastoral trippiness and industrial strength corrosion fuzz blasts, all in the space of around 4 apocalyptic life-changing minutes. And the acid dazzled lyrics veer from playful to surreal to darkly disturbed without batting a heavily stoned eyelid.

    Grab this bastard on 45, or a comp, or even better, as a bonus on their SF Sorrow masterpiece and your life will be transformed.
