Another alternative reality from Hitcho where the Man Downstairs supplants the Man Upstairs just as Mossy Liquor dissolves Moss Elixir and a Groovy Decoy turns your attention from the Groovy Decay. Who needs reality, this is a fantastic collection. Favorite track: Recalling The Truth.

F.E. Boone
This collection of songs is as good as "The Man Upstairs," which works better as an *album* than this one -- that's the only qualitative difference.

I have to admit that I haven’t listened to Robyn’s music in years. I always enjoyed his music back in the day. I came across him again through Def. Dylan’s Podcast of Emma Swift’s”Blonde on the Tracks”. I love the Man Upstairs. Favorite track is Townes Van Zandt ‘s “The Tower Song”. I really have a soft spot for Solo with just a guitar. Well down Robyn old friend.
