With the odd expectation, sequels are rarely better than the original. Godfather 2, Aliens and Terminator 2 break that mould and you can add this album to that list

Don’t get me wrong, Acid Jam is a brilliant album but this sequel, 12 years later is fractionally better than the original. The spontaneity of the rather messy original is replaced by a more thought-out affair.

It’s packed full of psychedelic quality, and you’d think that at around two-and-a-half-hour the quantity might drop. Nothing could be further from the truth.

Its still possess the fiery, uninhibited guitar freakouts, "Reformation Blues" and "Funeral Ballet Music" are prime examples. It feels like it’s less immediate but better planned and resourced and it benefits from that.
