"Pretty good album for a fusion album everybody sounds like they're having a good time everybody is in tune very tuneful. The best album from this band." Reply
"A good album album which mostly suffers from having been released in between and in a time of masterpieces. Not an essential Tull album, but definitely a good one for anyone wanting to go beyond their obvious masterpieces." Reply

"Minnie Riperton is, sadly, a largely forgotten ´musical angel´. A very good album by the late starlet whose life and career was so tragically curtailed by fatal illness. Lovin´ You is one of the most beautiful Soul ballads ever recorded," Reply
"A very solid debut from the masters of arena-prog. The album is well anchored by its outstanding middle cuts, 'Belexes' and 'Journey from Mariabronn.'" Reply

"This album is a bit overlooked but still has a load of great songs. In fact the only track which I don't think is brilliant is "You'd Better Believe It"." Reply
