3.0 out of 5 stars Silver Apples - 'The Garden' (Whirlybird Records), December 18, 2003

All fourteen of these tracks have never been released before.Awhile back,original/long lost Silver Apples drummer Danny Taylor was at work when he heard an Apples tune on the radio.Taylor then phoned and faxed SA mastermind Simeon and the two were happily reunited.They apparently went through an old truck full of Taylor's stuff and stumbled across a studio tape that both had completely forgotten about.Maybe not as great as their first two albums,but 'The Garden' is decent.Some of the songs that I thought carried their own are "I Don't Care What People Say","Mad Man Blues" and the cool instrumental "Anasazi Noodle".If you're a fan,you shouldn't be let down.If you're wanting to check out the band for the first time,get their self-titled debut and/or 'Contact'.

These songs prove that Danny Taylor is one of the best all-time drummers ("Tabuli Noodle" and "Canonball Noodle" are awesome!). But Simeon is a genius as composer and lyricist. "I Don't Care What People Say" and "Mad Man Blues" are absolutely fantastic! Unfortunately they are extremely underrated. It's a pity.

I was a late comer to this one, the plus side of that was that I still had one more beautiful SA album in store from the "dynamic duo." IMHO, this album features lyrics and drums. If you like listening to drum styles, don't miss this CD because there is nothing else like it anywhere, (God bless Danny's soul). As are other SA albums, this one is absolutly disarming, brave music like this is too scarce in this world. Thank you Simeon and Danny(:
