What do I see when I see the cover of Mike Oldfield's Crises? I guess I see a bad groundskeeping operation.
Paco was a lousy groundskeeper.Every flower he planted wilted, every tree he planted died, and the sidewalks were crooked and cracked.
Paco thought about using Astroturf for the grass at Park Tower, but the building owners said no.
"This is your last chance, Paco," said the owners. "Make the grass grow, or you're getting deported."
Paco watched the grass slowly turn brown.
He panicked. In desperation, he spread fertilizer over the lawn, turned the sprinklers on full blast, and prayed for a miracle.
What he got was a five-hour nap, the miraculous Lake Park Tower, and a pink slip.
I love the album, though.
