Lessons in the lyrics: “Sometimes you’re just too much when you’re not enough.” Actually, a deep psychological observation clothed in dry humor. Our favorite?: “Don’t be an exhibit, just visit the zoo.”
3/4 High is the new single from Mother Goat. It’s a loping acoustic groove that does what it says: It’s gonna “lift your spirits up, but not all the way.”
Wait til the chorus though, because it might just lift you higher. Suddenly you're in “Uncle John's Band” territory, and you'll understand why the producer tried to convince the band to call their album “Workingman's Goat.” Wisely, they chose the title “Salt Licks” instead.
Sure it’s a song about getting high, but it’s also about your friends, your family, and most importantly, the grocery shopping. Don’t miss it.
