"Visions Of The Higher Dream"
by Daniel Romano
supported by 8 fans who also own “If It's Real”
If I were in a band like the Golden Gate Wingmen, playing songs from the Grateful Dead catalogue (the greatest songbook in the world) and other forever-glittering specimens of the art of song, like Dylan tunes, solo Beatles picks (Nobody Told Me, Any Road), Zevon, and Van Morrison's Beautiful Vision record, I would also stuff our setlists with songs from Visions of the Higher Dream. And I mean all of them. Not one song would pale in that company. That's how commanding and classic this album is.

RAIN, RAIN, RAIN
by Matthew 'Doc' Dunn
supported by 6 fans who also own “If It's Real”
Stunningly gorgeous soft rock, bringing to mind some kind of homogenization of the Eagles, Fleetwood Mac, and the Bee Gees. The music is a textured backdrop for the lush, poignant vocals.

UNTITLED (Black Is)
by SAULT
supported by 6 fans who also own “If It's Real”
Sparse, political funk that reminds me a bit of Sly Stone's "There's a Riot Goin' On". Smart and righteous.
