The 1968 was the pioneer for all subsequent psychedelic bands

who wanted to work with synthesizers and electronic effects.
I think when listening this time already absolute rarity
to Jefferson Airplane song from her, to Hawkwind and to the Beatles.
In addition still echoes arrive vaudeville, music fair, and Dixie
New Orleans Jazz.
One must mention that here no synthesizers were used
and all sounds and effects with questionable Electronic parts
such as oscillators and Calliope were generated.
This will zusammengfügt partially collage-like and results in
Ultimately an absolutely awesome psychedelic album, unfortunately,
the only thing that now cult band.

"American Metaphysical Circus" 4:55 starts with carnival music
stalling from an oscillator to make room for a
Airplane-psychedelic song by Dorothy of all sorts
Effects is underlined.

"Hard Coming Love" 4:43 rocks just to the front and is
by all kinds of electronic effects to the brink of cacophony
performed before a psychedelic singing the song again
front rocks, accompanied by all sorts of effects.
I would say: Jefferson Airplane Meet The Doors

Far removed and lifted heard the vocals on "Cloud Song" 3:18
folky melancholy about violins / Electronic-Background and goes
seamlessly into "The garden of earthly delight" 2:39 the
Hawkwind-like straight rock.

This is followed by "I won`t Leave My Wooden Wife for you, sugar," 3:32 "
is brought over to the swinging like a Dixieland.

This is followed by a 3-piece, consisting on nine-minute song Collage
from the New Orleans jazz "Where is Yesterday" which merges into
"Coming down" with cannon-choir and Mantra formula before it dynamically
losrockt and turn seamlessly into "Love Song for the Dead Che"
melancholic - relaxed - psychedelic.

"Stranded in time" 1:50 is a Pepper Beatles bond
with violin cello arrangement.

Is completed, the original plate
"The American way of love" 6:36 as oblique psychedelic trip
with many effects almost cacophonous, broken up by
a slight swing before once again the depths of the Electronic
be explored and mate with Dixieland.

A really strong disc that a somewhat demanded.
But it was definitely worth it if you're getting into it.
