"This has always been one of my favorite ska albums and its top two songs received significant airplay on MTV (I confess / save it for later). Surprised this album isn't ranked higher"  Reply

"I enjoy 70s rock because there was no limitations. Crazy elaborate album covers, colored vinyl, complicated time signatures, songs an entire album side, etc. Nothing was too crazy, possibly drug induced decision making, but you can’t deny the wealth of classic albums created during this decade.
