Up until last year, I was the lead guitarist for the seminal 60s psychedelic band "It's a Beautiful Day". I've been playing music professionally for 45 years. When I heard this CD, I was truly floored. It's such a complete body of work that Jim Raines has managed to squeeze into such a relatively small amount of time. The songs range from Americana to Pop to Pyscho-Hillbilly to beautiful ballads..... and more, for which description escapes me.
