Album Notes & Community Reviews
Tragically standing as the final studio album to feature co-founder Alan 'Blind Owl' Wilson before his untimely death, this release highlights a slight transition toward ecological consciousness and environmental themes. The band's signature boogie-rock shuffle remains fully intact, most notably on their massive, enduring hit cover of Wilbert Harrison's 'Let's Work Together'.
