“On Jones Beach is made up of a single titular piece that runs almost 48 minutes. The album charts a tour of the last 40+ years of guitar-based psychedelic improv guitar-based psychedelic improv, from supremely stoned ambient drone to slack-stringed doom metal guitar minimalism, groovy post-branca skronk, devotional bleats, ...and bagpipes! This vinyl edition presents the studio session in two twenty-one minute installments, and is accompanied by a download coupon for DRM-free MP3s of the complete 48 minute studio session as well as three live bonus tracks."
