"The Great Parrot-Ox and the Golden Egg of Empathy" by The Claypool Lennon Delirium

ATO RecordsProducers: Les Claypool, Sean Ono Lennon Wanna get weird? This pair does. Well, that’s always been true, but this album is their best yet. A meditation on the perils of artificial intelligence, it’s their version of a rock opera, albeit a somewhat inscrutable one. The lush comic book it comes with helps explain it all. Musically speaking, imagine if Primus recorded a sequel to Sgt. Pepper’s, or a still alive John Lennon stepped into the studio on too much acid. Finale “It’s a Wrap” is a nearly 13-minute tour de force worth listening to on its own.
