About

As lead architect of the experimental Texas troupe The Red Krayola, Mayo Thompson has defied categorization whenever possible, and even his relatively accessible 1970 folk-rock solo debut finds subtle ways to challenge expectations. The fantastical “Oyster Thins” shimmies along like a ragtime performed by the Mad Hatter, while “To You” rides an offbeat bass and saxophone groove that sounds like proto-Ariel Pink. But gentle strummers like the intimate “Dear Betty Baby” prove that beneath all the eccentric detours lies a soulful American songwriter.
