The Gris Gris - Mary #38 7'' (Birdman, 2004)

The Gris Gris
Mary #38 7''
Birdman
2004

Rating: 6.5 distant skies out of 10

More prototypical psych rock from the Bay Area's Gris Gris, the modern founders of the movement that brought so much attention to that area via Wooden Shjips, one of Ty Segall's thousand projects, and numerous other acts.  The title track on side A is real solid, and also available on their self-titled debut album that came out the same year.  For my money the other side "Baby You're Mine Now," despite having a title like a pre-war blues song, is mediocre at best.
