Future Games, subtitled “A Magical Kahauna Dream”, was the fourth album that Spirit released for Mercury Records. However, it is practically a Randy California solo album in all but name, as he played most of the instruments and did most of the writing throughout the album. Coming off as a slightly warped science fiction version of Spirit of ’76, it is an album that greatly divides fans. Many find it boring and monotonous (and decry the poor sound quality, which is greatly improved by listening on headphones in binaural stereo), while others appreciate the humour and character that the album embodies. If nothing else, it certainly stands alone in Spirit’s oeuvre.
