Beulah - “Fooled With The Wrong Guy”
Yoko - Velocette
Plaintive, mournful,
and achingly beautiful. These qualities continue through out Yoko. All mixed with
hints of optimism, all delivered in different moods and modes, from seething urgency
to hazed atmospherics. Musically, there's no pigeon hole here, Beatles and Beach
Boys are easy reference points (along with Big Star and Wilco), but Beulah's Yoko
is what it is - dark West coast Pop.
