Few artists come along that convey their raw passion directly onto the canvas, and when they are gone they have left a legacy...
Mr. C. Scully Jimsonweed is one such artist!
Alive with vivid color, which compels the senses to new heights, creations of a realistically raw minds eye, is what Mr. C. Scully Jimsonweed creates on canvas. Not just paintings, but lucid fabrications of intense dreams and visions, memorably experienced as he travels the world as one of the "chosen" for his people.
Color-blind to red, it is one of the most focal colors he uses in many of his re-creations! Abled by this innocent disability, he manipulates emotional explosions to co-exist dramatically within space. Creating un-nerving intensity and integrity in his art, though unable to see the genuine colors, he is truly led by a divine hand... His own...

"Although most of the tracks are covers, it's intriguing how well the Electric Soul Pimps draw from epic rock and roll to create their own sound as they scramble it with blues, soul, country, and even some industrial.
The elements of a good album are here: the rocking strains of "High of Your Love" and "Heaven or Hell", the dark bluesy overtones of "Love is Revenge", and all backed by a powerful rhythm section. Just about every song on the disk is a ballad. The band found its niche and is stickng with it.
Strings are used well on a number of songs, especially the resounding guitar opener on the band's cover of Dylan's "Spanish Boots" and throughout "One So Far Away".
Couple the album's whole "love sucks so I left, and now I'm keepin' on" sentiment with the placid melodies and careful arrangements, and the record has a fresh sound even as it ends with a nearly 18 minute rendition of Dylan's "Highway 61".
That's alot of Dylan."

Extra Info: Artistry on album is done by Mr. C. Scully Jimsonweed
NOTE:**One of the cuts on the album is a reading by lead singer, Chris Murphy, from an excerpt of Tom Robbins Book, "Skinny Legs and All". When writing the author to obtain permission for use, ESP was surprised to receive a letter from the author himself!! Below we have reprinted some of his flattering letter dated Oct 8, 2001, Dictated by Assistant...
"... the person who reads that excerpt fromSkinny Legs & All on your CD is terrific. It's the first time that someone has ever read from my work better than I think I, myself, could have done it. He actually makes me sound rather profound. Great Job."
Mr. Robbins closes with "I wish you the luck I wish myself".
