NOTES ON THIS VINYL RECORD:

This album, another great Mandrill delivery, was made with the help of traditional instruments as usual, and T.O.N.T.O., The Original New Timbrel Orchestra ("tonto" also means "dumb" in spanish). "This instrument consists of 12 synthesizers linked together and played simultaneously. A ployphonic touch-sensitive keyboard also plays an essential role in the creation of sound when the instrument is played. We thank you, Malcolm Cecil, for the creation of T.O.N.T.O."
All side 1 tracks are to die for. I was kind of lost on side 2, though.
