I often find myself lost in technicalities
But never take for granted what was never granted me
I object to vanities and reject profanities like sunscreen
It’s orange, blue and green
But what is seen can never be unseen
And I'm honoured to be
But in the middle of the movie I woke up in a dream
Surrounded, with my fears that ricochet in tandem
Greater than the Atlantic, I
I soaked my feet deep in the oceans around me
When you came and you found me
Lounging on fake hopes and panics, ideas were rancid
I took your word for ransom, I was the sum of the parts
You multiplied to enhance me, you multiplied to enhance me
You multiplied me, you multiplied me, you multiplied me, you multiplied
You multiply, you multiply, you multiply, you multiply
(How 'bout that?) You multiply, you multiply, you, you, you, you
When my ideas collide, I find the strength to see myself
Within a moment combined, the point of view redefined
Declined in darkness, my body varnish like my name doesn’t start with
I’m artless, the artist, I’m heartless like Kanye and candid like cameras
Decide indecisive, divide so divisive conquered my crisis, these dungeons and dragons
I will, discover dimensions, uncover new thrills
I get trill, on a mule when I’m reaching my mill I diffuse I am suave
Employ my own muse an amusement
Anything that is good I go out - and I ruin it
A message to Rudy, he skanks when I’m moody
It’s my time I’m rooted, my time
You say “hey”, I say “hi”, my mind multiplies
"Who am I?", "Am I, I?", I am I, in my mind
You multiply, you multiply, you multiply, you multiply
(How 'bout that?) You multiply, you multiply, you, you, you, you

Like so many others, this came like a bolt out of the blue and, even though it's well before payday, I had to have this astonishing album on vinyl to prove it exists. The feel of the tunes makes me feel like the Impressions do, Curtis Mayfield, the big spaces and instinctive horns and stuff drifting in and out. Great grooves and I can see lots of ghosts nodding along to this with big smiles on their faces. At last! Anthony Cottrell
