John Wonderling has been played on NTS in shows including Acid Memories w/ Astral Vibes, featured first on 11 May 2021. Songs played include Jessica Stone and Cowboy Lullaby.

Psych fans know Wonderling because of the oft-comped single "Man Of Straw" (which, 5 years later, is here on this LP), and will be glad to find that the album is more of the same: singer/songwriter music with a druggy feel (lyrically and musically), acoustic rhythm guitars with electric lead guitars, and Wonderling's strong voice up front. The opening "Long Way Home" is an intriguing blend of hippie psychedelia and mainstream 70s rock (for example, a female backing vocal chorus appears when you'd least expect it). Elsewhere spacy strings and drony sitars hold hands with poppy horn arrangements. As a whole it is the kind of elaborate production you would think the label wouldn't waste on an album if they were only going to distribute 10 copies. This is one weird sucker, and overall very good, a singer songwriter album as distinctive as those by, say, John Braheny, Marc Jonson and Rex Holman. Wonderling earlier wrote "Midway Down", covered by Brit mod legends the Creation.
