lastnoble I mean this is a pretty biased review given that this is *my band* but there's something about everyone I get the privilege to play with that allows us to make some uniquely fun 'n funky tunes. Favorite track: Rainbow Lightning.

paul rote Sounds like someone discovered their grandfather's album collection and tucked inside an Amon Duul Album was some authentic LSD from the early seventies.
How else do you describe this ? Favorite track: Butternut Squash and Sour Patch Kid.

I... Once went to a Laundry Shop To get my clothes clean I was far away from home But I still needed to get my clothes clean Oh, at the Laundry Shop Oh... at the Laundry Shop Oh... at the Laundry Shop At the Laundry Shop! I... Once went to a Laundry Shop To get my clothes clean Because the summer camp didn't want me to use their laundry machines. Oh, at the Laundry Shop Oh... at the Laundry Shop Oh... at the Laundry Shop At the Laundry Shop! But they said, (ooh...) It would only be an hour or three, To get my clothes clean, But their laundry machines broke down, And I cried... I cried... I cried... I cried... I cryyyyyyyyyyyy...

Purple Bottle... Purple Bottle... Do you have that Purple Bottle for me? x2 Because I don't like to wine, But do you have some for me? Red Bottle... Red Bottle... Do you have that Red Bottle for me? x2 Because if you don't, That Dionysus I won't see. (psychedelic sax solo) Green Bottle... Green Bottle... Do you have that Green Bottle for me? x2 Because if you don't, That Green Fairy I won't see. Yellow Bottle... Yellow Bottle... Do you have that rat poison for me? x2 Because if you do, The Grim Reaper I'll see. / Northern Lights / Psychedelic rays Pierce into your eyes, Chromatic light beams Of unusual size Iridescence that ain't no surprise Climb these scales into the skies Chromatic plasma pies Melancholy never tasted sweeter Than your medicine fever I got so high Didn't even need a lighter Man... I took just one toke, Wasn't much for a city bloke But, man, I got high... Altitude sickness I went on a plane ride the other day...

I once was a Lieutenant, In the military. I was guarding a nuclear reactor When I got LD* Didn't know what I was doing. Didn't know where to go-oh, But I knew one day I'd become... El Capitan x4 I skinned some potatoes To make a meal Of morsels and men Of blubber and seal. Didn't know what I was doing. Didn't know where to go-oh, But I knew one day I'd become... El Capitan x4 (Keys Solo) (Sax-y Solos) One Day I'll lead them some place. x2 I once was... An officier I had a rank And an odor too. Didn't know what I was doing. Didn't know where to go-oh, But I knew one day I'd become... El Capitan x4 I was Time... Hard... Military Time... Ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha! What's worse? What's worse? What's worse!? But I knew, I knew that I'd become! (Bass solo) (Fiddle solo) One Day I'll lead them some place (Can you take me real far?) One Day I'll lead them some place (Can you take them real far?) One Day I'll lead them some place (Can you take them real far?) One Day I'll lead them some place. *LD is an acronym for "Lethal Dose."

Rainbow Lightning 06:08
lyrics

Ooooh... oooh... Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh... Look up into star-spangled sky, It ain't as black and white as it's blue. Colors melt into starry night, Shining electric hues. I ain't seen nothing like it in years, Rarer than any Blue Moon. I seen a lot of phenomena in my day, But I think this one will turn all to ruin. Rainbow Lightning! Rainbow Lightning! Rainbow Lightning! Rainbow Lightning! Dreams... turn into superficialities. Dreams... turn into cold cut realities. Drums... fading into obscurity. Gone... are the nights of Rainbow Lightning. And in the change, everthing's alright. I see my past, reflected in your face. A Wanderer... I see in retrograde. Made are we from humble beginnings Then wash in the river Styx* to forget. Heavens... Turn like the Zodiac. Hey... I'd like some cognac... I'd like some cognac... I'd like some cognac... I'd like some cognac...

about

"Old Bottles," as in the usual format and container you're used to hearing an album in, and "New Medicine," as in new music, STRAIGHT TO YOUR EAR HOLES, from DBMB.
Recorded and compiled over a half a year of the Medicine Band's life (from January 2016 - June 2016,) both from recording in our lo-fi "studio" basement, and at our live shows.
