Outside Chance

I liked this song the first time I heard it by the Turtles. It is still a good song. This version though maybe not great still treats a good song with the respect it deserves. Heavy Trash made a good choice choosing this relatively obsure Warren Zevon song from the 60's.Solid Zinc: The Turtles Anthology

Talk about a 60's lo-fi throwback. I guess if you just can't compete in today's music world, why not try to make it as some sort of a roots revival type of group. But the problem here is that it just doesn't compare well to anything that it seeks to emulate.

The production is very lo-fi, to the point of being painful to listen to. The mix of musical styles (old Stones, early Beatles, The Kinks, along with other more obscure bands) doesn't quite blend well. Quite simply, there isn't anything noteworthy about this song...the melody is flat, the vocals are annoying, and the musicianship is sub par. Not really even worth a free listen, in my opinion.
