After debuting at No. 1 last week, The Ventures’s album Mashed Potatoes And Gravy falls to No. 2 with 550,000, a sales slide of 67%. This is one of the best Cd’s The Ventures has dropped to date. It’s a brave and brilliant refocusing of The Ventures energies, virtually a rebirth. I Love Mashed Potatoes And Gravy from start to finish!
Gravy (For My Mashed Potatoes) have really caught my ear and imagination. Hernando’s Hideaway is one of these floating songs. Music and lyrics of Mashed Potato Time creates, for me, fertile ground for daydreaming. Summertime is probably one of The Ventures’s biggest successes for the album - it’s lovely to listen to. In this song fans will recognize the unique vocals of The Ventures. If you are a The Ventures fan, you will love Poison Ivy. The Wah-Watusi is the most memorable and gorgeous. |titile| is quite refreshing and sets the tone for what is going on in Mashed Potatoes And Gravy. |titile| is the kind of record that makes you remember why music can be so addictive. Hully Gully (Baby) rocked my world when I popped it into my car stereo. In Spudnik The Ventures spins a tale you want to hear to the end.
