That little bit of contemporary punk/new-wave feel is most evident when you hear Toody Cole's vocal affectation on the chorus of "Panic on 39th". I had a laugh with a friend when the reissue came out about the idea of a panic actually happening on 39th in Portland. I can imagine a panic on SW 3rd, or especially where NE Sandy splits off Burnside.
