San Francisco rocker Chuck Prophethas been making music for decades. He pioneered psychedelic Americana with the band Green on Red in the 80s, before going solo in 1990. His latest record, The Land That Time Forgotis a "21st Century Exorcism" from Silicon Valley to the White House.
The Land That Time Forgot got off the ground in the Money Belt, only to find its legs in the Borscht Belt. Musically it has deep roots, from the Southern Delta to the discos of Munich. There's a kind of folkish inevitability to it, lots of acoustic instruments, on top of each other and side by side. But as much as folk music is the soil all music grows from, it never hurts to have a boiler room. So, there's always a rhythm section shuffling under your feet here.
