...best efforts of the band, and the result is hauntingly intense. The second track, "Pressure's On," is one such song: the weirdly hypnotic synthesizer, the surreal, breathy vocals and the only occasionally comprehensible lyrics combine to create a liquid, seductive, trippy sound. A later track, the aptly titled "Rhythmic Dreams," has a similar effect, but relies on a steady jungly drumbeat and mantra-like vocals to give the piece shape and draw in the listener. These and other tracks utilize non-musical noises, like dripping water, crickets, and talking voices, to form a foundation of sound under the music...
...pique, he has decided to fulfill his contract by dipping into his backlog of 500 songs.

We got rid of the pauses, those actors' moments, the hanging looks that mean nothing. Medical shows have been at the Marcus Welby pace: meet a patient, portray the disease...
...worthy of the concert hall. Joplin's rags, beginning with the sprightly Original Rags and ending with the autumnal, resigned Magnetic Rag of 1914, his farewell to the genre, were elegant in construction and limpid in expression. Yet they fully partook of what Joplin called a "weird and intoxicating" rhythmic quality, a quality that enthralled listeners and enraged preachers...
