Perfect Prescription was a concept album, the best drug record ever, and they do it without sounding trippy. It's druggy but it's not psychedelic; it remains grounded, smooth, groovy. I remember seeing this in a record shop in Boston, must have been 1989, looking at the cover, I think they both have their eyes closed and look like demented English schoolboys.
