Return To Fantasy; another one I've not played in some years. I find this an improvement over its predecessor, at least, though (despite the nostalgic title) definitely not up to 1971-2 standards. The title track is the highlight. Byron overcooks the end of 'Beautiful Dream', an otherwise good track. They play 'Devil's Daughter' live now and again.
I think the ballads 'Your Turn To Remember' and 'Why Did You Go' hold up really well. Some of the rockier tracks are very 'by numbers'- 'Prima Donna' and 'Showdown' especially. These songs also suffer from irritating backing vocal arrangements IMHO.
