lyrics

Come in! Glad I could be of some help.
Remember reading Hamlet, Kevin?
No, Shakespeare, not Jack Fiennes.
Anyway, Hamlet Act IV, scene vii, Ophelia drowns in a river surrounded by wild flowers. That makes her the godmother of psychedelia according to a band from, where else? San Francisco. In tribute they named themselves The Ophelias, and their third album - "The Big O" - is a coupling of highbrow, psycho-sensual lyrics, and music flirting from garage rock to new age and back again...
