3 stars A good album with one song on it. Mike has used a huge amount of instruments or however you should call it. A little impression of the unusual instruments here: Glass, shoes, toothbrush and teeth, face slap, toy dog, a glass of water, spoons etc. etc. However he used a lot of different objects to make music I think it is a rather empty album with a view climaxes in it. The best one at the end when Margaret Tacher begins to speak. Well... I know how a toothbrush sounds and how a spoon sounds since I use it regularly. I think three stars is well deserved because it is worth listening more than once I must admit. I bought this record in the early '90's after listen to it with a friend of my. But after playing the album a dozen of times within a view years I have to say that I miss a view things on this album. I think the tempo could have been much better, I have to wait to long for the climax and instead of that I get a pair of shoes a toothbrush and a glass of water! Thanks Mike! Anyway good, but not essential.
