George Clanton is doing the lord's work. Both 100% Electronica and 200% Electronica (released
under his other project's name, ESPIRIT) are absolute gems, and Slide... Slide is a step above the
already lofty heights those other two albums reached. I can wait to see what this guy does in the
next 2, 5, 10 years. |
