    (S.A.C.)
  • STRAWBERRY  ALAR CLOCK   As with their previous Lp's, Good Morning Starshine is a sunny popsike affair, but varied as the music has shifted away from pure punky psychedelia such as "Love Me Again" and "The World Is on Fire," inheriting a much more aggressive, bluesy approach :
  •  à la (gasp) MC5. Although there are sonic vestiges and remnants of the band's former self -- such as the album's hippie-trips title track -- by all accounts this was the antithesis of what the band had been up until this point. The LP is certainly full of strong material, despite the slight change in direction. "Small Package" is reminiscent of the band's sound, circa Wake Up...It's Tomorrow. Likewise, the song is a minor chord masterpiece in the same vein as their previous hit, "Tomorrow." The "California Girls" vocal tag is a nod to the Beach Boys, with whom SAC shared many a late-'60s performance stage. Additionally, the mid-tempo rocker "Miss Attraction" would have been a welcome addition to their earlier releases. The free-form jamming and lead guitar lines are definitely reminiscent of early Spirit and the highly underrated Bay Area band Kak. The heavier and blues-influenced "Me and the Township," "Off Ramp Road Tramp," and "Hog Child" recall Blue Cheer and even later-era Moby Grape as much as they do the electric British blues of, say, Fleetwood Mac.
