"I’d love to change the world, but I don’t know what to do. So I’ll leave it up to you."
That was the band 10 Years After circa 1971, and 30 years later, Brooklyn's Woods are changing things with their latest LP, Sun And Shade. It'll be out via Woodsist this month along with the cut “Any Other Day.”
The song is a unique and compelling jangle-folk sound that mixes "California Dreamin'" with the hard rock influences from a time of war. The song's never-ending mantra convinces itself that that things can't possibly get worse.
It's a song that asks, "Where is sanity?" One can only stop, look up into the sky and find the answer. It’s a call for a day of hope and a promise of a brighter future that would put a smile on the face of Mama Cass.
