Chuck Prophet covers a a wide range of musical ground on his latest outing. In then opening tracks alone, we got from loud and dirty rock (“Automatic Blues”) to cross-generational Lennonesque (think: Mind Games) psyche pop (Age Of Miracles”) to the hip-hop infected, hyper melodic nod to the history of pop culture idioms (‘You Did”) – which if it doesn’t answer, at least raises many more musical questions, including: Who put the ram in the ram a lama ding dong…? Who raised the roof and never made a sound? Who cleared the static and made it sing? You did” Prophet seems to have a fondness for throwing many different people and various sounds together just to see what happens. Dig the transformations throughout a cut like “Pin A Rose On Me”. The Magic of such experimentation is no mistake; Prophet knows what he is doing. The results are enchanting, particularly the Spector of Wilson that drives a tune like “Just to See You Smile” or the lilting groove of “You Got Me Where You Want me”. I never did believe in miracles, and I’m beginning to wonder why.
