"It sounds like a tenplate for 'Snowflakes are Dancing' to me, much more raw & experimental, earlier, but unlike Snowflakes some of this gets lost in Father Time's Translations." Reply

"Another fine Best Of. Their earlier albums aren'ttrong, and not always easy to find. Much better than the Greatest Hits that came out later...this one has most of the Guess Who you'll ever need. And Burton Cummings has a GREAT rock & roll voice!" Reply
