It is a very good album Dave....I always liked it. It has that definite Wishbone Ash sound to it....bluesy rock with twin lead guitar.

Seconded but you can't go wrong with the first three albums really.... Funnily enough I can always hear a distant English Folk influence. It's hard to put it in words but it's definitely there and it is what, in my opinion, distinguishes this wonderful band from any other. The twin lead sound they got was magnificent too....To this day I miss Ted Turner's gorgeous lead work, which has never been surpassed, let alone copied....

I have a new valve phono stage on its first run tonight. Lovely sound, vintage partridge step up transformers working balanced into some russian 6N2P and 6N8P. Very happy so far....

I must dig out that "I am Kloot" CD again. Massive album.

Remembering Jimi's explosion into the world of Pop (sic) this very week back in the hazy,crazy days of 1967!





Released 12th of May 1967 UK. August 23rd USA...
