Reception
David Fricke of Rolling Stone selected the album as his "Fricke's Pick", writing, "From Acid to Zen is a big step in a bigger gamble", and, "It’s a shotgun buffet, like those early U.S. LPs by the Beatles and the Rolling Stones that combined album tracks and singles from unrelated sessions, and it succeeds the same way: like an instant greatest-hits record".
Track list
From Acid To Zen
Don't you know you better get some sleep you better get some sleep now but all you're gonna do is run out there and hide in the sound looking good from a distance while you're dancing around
no slowing down no one with questions around a soul left behind is more than a matter of time sing you will rise and shine
Everybody's gonna get somewhere gonna get somewhere now everybody's going faster and faster somehow looking good from a distance while you're dancing around
Cars and pearls in line you can see how they shine the thrill of a crime but hear them desperately crying we will rise and shine looking good from a distance while you're dancing around me running down the platform you're waving your hand don't know where you lost it I don't understand
Looking good froma distance and all the way from the shore the oceans will roar and drag you in good-looking from a distance while you're dancing around I'm running down the platform waving my hand
