The album itself, i..." [+] Reply

"One of the more 'acoustic' sounding affairs which quite rightly befits the album title. More folky than the progressive leanings of Thicks As A Brick and Aqualung. A fine album. Baker St Muse is the standout track for me, this has a more 'progressive' feel to it." Reply

"Randomly picked this up on vinyl and it's great. I had Rod written off as one good album after the Faces, Every Picture Tells a Story which is great as well but I think this is better. I always knew the song "Sailing" but was surprised to find that's not even the best song on here. Love the diffe..." [+] Reply
