Things get off to a roaring start with \"The Rise and Dear Demise of the Funky Nomadic Tribes,\" which segues from Yes-derived staccato unison riffing into a funk-guitar workout influenced by Jimi Hendrix and James Brown. From there it's on to \"Buffalo Gal,\" a melancholy folk-ish plaint that anticipates the working class Irish poetry Lizzy frontman Phil Lynott would develop to great effect later in the '70s; other stylistic detours include stabs at faux rockabilly (\"I Don't Want to Forget How to Jive\"), Mellotron-drenched confessional ballads (the title tune), and even a sort of visionary art-punk (\"Call the Police). Pretty cool, but the best was yet to come.","brand":"MovieMars","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45792136528159,"sku":"602498444825","price":14.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0679\/7833\/0399\/files\/09a1a1178beed13f0fd2957c152f3a3f_74baa7e4-a5f0-49ec-b4f1-a11d36c474ec.jpg?v=1777650948","url":"https:\/\/www.moviemars.com\/products\/shades-of-a-blue-orphanage-limited-edition","provider":"MovieMars","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
