In a Priest Driven Ambulance (With Silver Sunshine Stares) is the fourth album by The Flaming Lips, released in 1990 (see 1990 in music). It is a concept album primarily focused on frontman Wayne Coyne's fascination with religion. It is generally considered among critics to be one of the Flaming Lips' greatest albums. It is the first Flaming Lips album to feature Jonathan Donahue (also of Mercury Rev) and drummer, Nathan Roberts. This line-up would subsequently be signed by Warner Bros

This album was a turning point not just for the Flaming Lips, but for the genre of psychedelic pop rock. The 80's was a decade of great innovation in psychedelia; bands like The Butthole Surfers and Sonic Youth infused the genre with a new level of intensity in abrasion and post-punk dynamics.

They are in fact composers of a different song called "It’s A Wonderful World". The actual song on this album is the Louis Armstrong standard written by George David Weiss and Bob Thiele.

In a Priest Driven Ambulance - Студийный альбом от The Flaming Lips. Вышел 1 сентября 1990г. В альбом вошло 21 треков. Продолжительность альбома: 01:37:08. God Walks Among Us Now - Jesus Song No. 6. 04:46.

Priest Driven Ambulance, a loose concept album revolving around an obsession with religion, the Lips show it’s possible for a rock band to sing about Christianity without being a Christian rock band. Jesus was just part of the imagery that we used, Coyne told DeRogatis. Hence, subtitles like Jesus Song N. or Jesus Song No. 2 and lyrics like Waiting for my ride, Jesus is waiting outside. Fridmann is to the Flaming Lips as George Martin was to the Beatles. He has produced, or co-produced, just about everything the band has done since 1990, barring Transmissions From the Satellite Heart. This creative partnership began with In a Priest Driven Ambulance.

The final pre-major label album from the Flaming Lips brought a huge shift in sound that would define their work over the greater part of the next decade. The first album to feature MERCURY REV's JONATHAN DONAHUE on guitar, In A Priest Driven Ambulance features more structured songwriting and tighter production. The lyrical wit and insight of WAYNE COYNE had never been better as his obsession with religious imagery moved to the forefront. Features "Unconsciously Screamin'," "Rainin' Babies," and "God Walks Among Us No.

Talk about The Flaming Lips - In A Priest Driven Ambulance

Sounds way better than the plain reissue from 2005. Glad I rebought this album. Definitely worth the $20 I paid at my local brick and mortar. Recommended for major Lips fans. This is my favorite album from their early period and this reissue is the best I’ve ever heard it sound. Edit: Just gave a very critical listen to side b, and man, this pressing really shines. The Sonics are particularly impressive on ‘Stand in Line’. Don’t snooze on this reissue.
