"This album rocks, and that's what there is to say about that. There are two or three dud tracks: Pity You and Love Without Anger in particular don't have the same energy as the rest of the album, but they've still got a little something to them. Race of Doom comes on a little hard to start side 2..."  [+]  Reply

"God Bless is the second of two 1960's psychedelic masterpieces of Mayo Thompson. Thompson composed it after a stay in New York and a collaboration with Joe Byrd of the United States Of America. This album is just as experimental as the debut but slightly less unified. The album still shows a natu..."  [+]  Reply

"For a mostly instrumental record, it does a good job conveying feelings and emotions. There's not a whole lot of variety here, but it's an hour well spent and I'd recommend listening to it at least once."  Reply

"Due to the style of the songs, this album is never going to be rated a classic. Way too whimsical by half ! Very much of its time. However, having first heard it when I was 10, I have a lot of affection for it. The childlike quality of the songs appealed to me..and still does in a nostalgic way. ..."  [+]  Reply

"Not just a criminally good debut, a criminally good album. It's a real shame that artists like Paul Draper just do not seem to stand a chance in this world of mediocrity. Tisk, tisk. Apparently this album was pretty much already done when Radiohead was only getting started in recording their most..."  [+]  Reply

"As a 12 yr old I loved this album. I now see it for what it is; light weight dross. However, the man could sing. And Your the Voice is very good song Worthing some very mediocre tracks."  Reply
