This often overlooked mid-1960s San Francisco band blended country, blues, boogie, and rock with pristine harmonies in a compelling and, at the time, unparalleled mix. The seeds of Moby Grape's premature demise were sown by their comparative music-business inexperience and the incompetence of their record label. Yet the well-assembled best-of, LISTEN MY FRIENDS! displays the band's remarkable assurance and breadth of musical imagination, from early cuts such as the country boogie of "Hey Grandma" and the vintage West Coast psychedelia of "Omaha," to the searing baroque boogie of "Can't Be So Bad" and the carefree harmonies of "Ooh Mama Ooh."

Uncut (p.109) - 4 stars out of 5 -- "[With] combustible triple-threat guitars, rich, beatific harmonies, and strong songwriting..."
