“Build Yourself An Aero Plane”
by Yesterday's Thoughts with Sky Sunlight Saxon
2004 song
On Let’s Take A Ride, the gorgeous 2004 album from Greek psychedelic band Yesterday’s Thoughts, Sky Sunlight Saxon joins them for two songs. One of them is "Build Yourself An Aero Plane", a short and fraught psychedelic garage stomper that comes across like a cousin of The Seeds’ "A Thousand Shadows". The band channels the sixties vibe to perfection and Sky, while certainly stoned, sounds more awake and committed to his performance than he sometimes was.
Seeds fans would love Let’s Take A Ride even without Sky Saxon. But thanks to his welcome appearance on "Build Yourself An Aero Plane" and "If I Had Some Marijuana", the album becomes downright indispensable. Highly recommended.
