What a great second album. It has so many powerful songs on it. Ron Ashton is on top form.

The title track is great and the album is a classic from Van Morrison.

I like the cover of this album so much. It has two titles. It depends whether you look at the front or the back.

This is not everybody's idea of what a Velvets' album should sound like, but it has some great songs on there, even if the production isn't quite right.

Yes I'm Thinking...Ilove everything about this Album. Barratt looks great on The cover. He sounds as if he is falling apart at times, but he still manages to put together a great album.

This album came from my grandad. He gave it to me and I loved it from the moment I saw it. The cover looks great. The music is amazing and is some of the best sound track work I have heard.
