This is pretty much as classic as classic rock gets. There's really not a single bad tune on here. The pacing can be a little slow at times, and yes, the songs do kind of sound the same after a while, but they're all catchy enough for it not to matter. Oddly enough, if I had to pick one song that was out of place on here, it would probably be Time of the Season. It just doesn't really fit the tone of the rest of the album, despite being a great song by itself. Best track is easily Care of Cell 44. I could listen to it on repeat all day.

It's fantastic. Who is going to argue against that? Just a masterpiece.
Favorite tracks: Beechwood Park, Butcher's Tale, Time of the Season, actually they're all good. _________________

Ought to hear this one again. I'm not a big fan of Classic Rock, but this one just sounds great.

I still don't really know whether this or Pet Sounds is better, but I don't care. Both are utterly fabulous.

This album is really good. Doesn't get much better for Psychedelic fans than this.
