From the hypnotic, elegiac pulse of “Tiger Trap” to the meditative tone poem of “Godsend,” the quiet maturity and melodic confidence of You Turn Me On makes it a bittersweet swansong, but what a way to go out.

On the first day of a tour across the country we stopped at Tombstone Music in Clackamas, Oregon. Fred Cole assisted Bret to acquire a guitar amplifier he had his eye upon. Heather was much taken by the Fender Coronado 12-string electric guitar. It was purchased and this led to our "two guitar” approach. You Turn Me On is the result. — Calvin Johnson
