Back in 1992, when Luna released its first album, Lunapark, I was delighted by their quirky, ironic lyrics, a reassuring desert- oasis feel and several standout songs such as the wistful, gorgeous "Anesthesia." 1 cannot help but feel disappointed with Bewitched. On a whole, the album is mellower, dreamier and more retro—almost approaching the classic (ugh) rock barrier. Fortunately, the album does have its bright spots. "California All the Way," the first cut, is typical Luna.

The puppy-dog cuteness evolves into a typical case of Apathetic Male Syndrome as the song escalates into directed and performed by Amanda Exley * / a lilting chorus: "Why has my sympathy now turned to malice? It doesn't matter anymore." Unfortunately, I find my sympathy turning to malice as well with the irritatingly and Toby Matthews / Grateful Deadesque "Tiger Lily" and the demeaning "Friendly Advice," where Wareham sneers, "I had to be drunk to look Musical direction by Cortney Lollar, Bart Matthews, at your face." Surprise, surprise. I wouldn't expected such and Brian Toth J cock rock bravado from Luna. Fortunately, they redeem themselves with the trembly title track and "This Time Around," Bewitched's own "Anesthesia:" "Thistime around, the pressure is on...you hope for happiness, your hands are scarred." The next four songs are relatively low-key, pasto­ ral, and unexceptional, with the exception of the abysmal "Great Jones Street," a heinous mutation of The Drifters' "Up on the Roof and some CSN/Paul Simon atrocity.

I hope that Q@Q, if not pleasing all of the people all of the Lime, has entertained and informed many of the people for much ofthe time. I admit that we did not emphasize the mainstream, opting rather to challenge andexpand horizons (hopefully both our own and yours). If B0B had one mission, it was to further the goal \5©3SEXD=/«HH*' ByDavid ofharmony among all, and to mature the development of a consciousness concerned with alleviating the suffering of others. Much ofthe work which our stories trumpeted was sad and depressing in nature. Only through reflection upon this unfortunate aspect ofthe human experience can we leam how to heal others. And heal ourselves. 5ut we also attempted to celebrate the strength of the human spirit in overcoming these struggles 1 think that John Coltrane and his music symbolize this grand effort, which makes me particularly pleased to feature an excellent piece on this beautiful man. this god in flesh. In conclusion, two documents are printed below, both of which have profoundly affected my life. The first is a manifesto of the Pariiament/f unkadelic vibe, an allegorical prayer for a harmonious world. The second is a piece of artwork by fieth Tobccman.
