"It's kind of a cosmic gumbo, it almost moves to the beat of jazz" - Santa Claus on the film Detective Crashmore
What would cosmic gumbo be in music form? Today we answer that question with two fantastic albums. One that will blow your mind with its insane instrumentation and send you on a journey through the afterlife. The other will have you moaning the blues and rocking along with a cosmic preacher delivering a sermon about the state of the world in 1971.
Both albums are made up of a variety of different influences that come together to form something greater than the sum of its parts, just like gumbo. Let's just hope it doesn't waste all over the car.
