Inviting hippie cash-in that boasts jazzfunk grooves played by electric harp, koto, vibes, kalimba, flute, oboe & more. Dot wrote the lyrics based on the 1859 Edward Fitzgerald translation of 11th century Persian poet Omar Khayyam (whom Fitzgerald turned into a pro-wine, aren't-flowers-pretty hack, ensuring perfect fodder for sixties faux-heaviness). The record will probably only get you laid if you live in California, but it's a fun one nonetheless. Tracklisting: Myself When Young, For Some We Loved, Wax & Wane, Drink, Wine, Dust, Joyful Grass & Grape, Shadow Shapes, Heaven & Hell, The Moving Finger.
