Gone Fishin' - Matt Piucci & Tim Lee ‎– Can't Get Lost When You're Goin' Nowhere [LP] (1986, Restless Records)

 

This album is a collaborative effort by Rain Parade's Matt Piucci and Tim Lee of The Windbreakers, and it's a decidedly mixed endeavor. While the sound quality is good and some of the songs are decent, the album also has its share of less effective tunes, pedestrian solo break sections, and at times joltingly sloppy ensemble playing. Highlights include "Touch the Gold," twith its rasping bluesy singing and spare arrangement featuring twangy slide guitar and clipped organ; "Lift It Up," with its almost shouted vocal, fuzz rock guitar, and chorus-only vintage-garage-band-sounding keyboards and drums; and two acoustic singer-songwriter style numbers, "Take a Left" and "Too Many Eyes," the latter exhibiting an especially yearning, if squarish, melodiousness. R.E.M.'s musical influence on this album is never too far from the surface and is especially noticeable on the ringing guitar track "Charlie Jones." This is a respectable, if not essential, recording. [SOURCE: ALLMUSIC]
