A passionate 5/5 rave for Black Cab’s Altamont Diary (2004): nine tracks steeped in delicately psychedelic textures and wild pop energy. The reviewer highlights Sabbath-like guitars, Hammond and sitar vibes, and a time-machine trip to Altamont-era Stones. Concludes it’s even an “ideal CD to win over a beautiful woman.”
