Peak chart position: 48

From the unbridled optimism of "I Can See Tomorrow from My Rooftop" to the intricate rhythms of "Your Watusi Is Deadly" and the earnest homage to past musical greats in "The Last Song to Leave the Station," this album epitomized the early LN&SWD sound. Some say the album is best enjoyed with a Moon Pie and an RC cola.

Reviews

"Don't eat the lumpy groovy"

"...well the spinning's finally stopped. This disc dragged me back. I had just got my license when it first came out. Driving my Grandpa's old pick-up around with this blasting out of a box on the seat next to me (G-pa never put a radio in). I've been trippin' on nostalgia since. For me the snack of choice was a pan of brownies & a Yukon Jack&Mtn Dew, but the tunes pair nicely with about anything.

If you weren't around back then, this is the perfect introduction to a time. "
