" "White Lightning" is acid jazz before there was acid jazz. And with so much hype behind this album you know there's gonna be a cleanup song. "Blind Man Can See It " falls into the one the greatest moments in history category with crazy guitar and drum break groove sampled by and the (). We love it.
