Review:
PSYCHOTIC SUPPER "Edison's Medicine" is a very catchy rocker, and "Call It What You Want" is a fantastic, anthemic follow up. "What You Give" is over 7 minutes long--an amazing acoustic anthem/ballad that rivals the more well-known "Love Song" in terms of its musicianship. "Song And Emotion" is another slower track that is a touching tribute to Def Leppard's Steve Clark, who had died earlier that same year. I remember hearing all these songs frequently on rock radio at the time this album was out. Other highlights include the catchy, heavy "Don't De-Rock Me", with an extended guitar solo and even a drum solo; the stirring (both musically and lyrically) "Freedom Slaves", which is a hard, anthemic rocker; and the amusing closing track, "Toke About It". Truth is, there is not a bad track here. The band has called this their favorite album, so be sure to pick this up if you were ever a fan of TESLA and somehow missed out on this one.
