  • Great tune! But Where is that groovy jug ?

  • I'm not sure, maybe its hiding, lol. This is one of the few songs of theirs that doesn't have it.

  • The entire album "Bull of the Woods" is free of the Sonic Love Jug. I was never a fan of it, but to each their own. Stacy Sutherland sings lead on this one, BTW.

  • I'm not much of a fan of the jug either. I think its too dominating, and repetitive.

  • who wrote this song? I heard{according to wiki} the main singer, was only part, of four of the songs, from this album.

  • Yeah, Rocky only played in four songs, but I don't think he actually wrote any on this one. It was probably Tommy Hall or Stacy Sutherland who wrote it.

  • Wow, what a song!

  • That is one of the most psychedelic songs I've ever heard - and the great light show that totally enhanced it. Thanks!

  • Few folks are just appreciative, just have hearts with no peace, always criticizing! 

  • Beautiful music. I always get up at 5AM during the summer solstice, and listen to this song as the sun comes up. It's a truely spiritual experience.

  • @MrMeddled Stacy wrote and sang this, and he rocks as much as Roky. Life wasn't fair to either of them. Stacy deserved to live, and have a second chance at success in music. And Roky deserves better than he's gotten out of life, to say the very least. Two amazing singer/songwriter/guitarists, gifted in music!

  • @LSDCoatedBrain Yes, it's quite annoying.

  • Thank you to everyone who brought this band back to life on youtube. I remember them along with led zepplin. totally brillant.

  • The jug was essential to their sound. It powered the songs like an echoed electronic pulse, particularly on Easter Everywhere. Hardly "repetitive", it is played rhythmically , and undulates..and makes their music uniquely "psychedelic." The jug does appear on "Never Another" on BOTW but is a less dominant, rather fluid, sound that curls like tendrils.
