The Complete Book of Hours

Recorded
Released

Released in 1986, the same year as their flagship single “Kim the Waitress,” Book of Hours (later expanded and reordered as The Complete Book of Hours) found the Green Pajamas delivering an equally stellar example of mid-80s American rock reclaiming the mid- to late 60s. With all four members contributing songs, guitarist Jeff Kelly leading the way, it’s a Seattle spin on the Paisley Underground in the best sense, Bruce Haedt’s keyboards as important as everything else, making songs like “Men In Your Life” and “Ten Thousand Words” sparkle.
