How can one not love their debut album???
Side 2 of the debut is a great side. Well, most of side one is also. The second one has some great music but isn't as solid as the first.
Listening again, and this is simply an INCREDIBLE record! It spins like a unified whole, reoccuring themes and so on, and indeed when those themes do occur, it's at the exact moments where you'd want them and to total avail of ecstatic impression.
This is arguably one of the very best "unknown" US albums from the mid-70s that I know, and that Hammond-organ is beyond belief throughout.

in some ways, their second album is a tad "proggier" (or at least more adventurous).Originally Posted by Fracktured
Love both of them, as they still get regular spins (right now they're in the car)
my music collection increased tenfolds when I switched from drug-addicts to complete nutcases.
