Album Notes & Community Reviews

Marking a significant transition for the pioneering British jazz-rock outfit, this effort introduced the powerhouse vocals of Chris Farlowe to their complex instrumental framework. The sweeping compositions effortlessly merge aggressive hard rock riffing with intricate brass arrangements and virtuosic improvisation, perfectly encapsulating the heavier, dramatic direction of early 70s progressive music.
