Seasonal Strange Fruit



Pomegranates are probably my favorite fruit. Which is saying something as I'm not really the biggest fan of that particular food group. It's just that every seed is bursting with that forbidden sour juice and that raw crunch of the seed, you can't help but just pop them one after another. It's like this with those elusive psychedelic pop morsels that came out of Persia during the '60s and '70s. Andy Votel's Finders Keepers label continues to impress with its release of Pomegranates, the compilation does a fantastic job at accessibly recapturing some of the lost treasures of the vibrant music scene.

Also, it brings to light the eerie similarity between Googoosh's "Talagh" and "Heaven on their Minds" from the Jesus Christ Superstar score. See for yourself.

Googoosh - Talagh
