"Classic folk album from Pentangle. Half live, half studio, it's an excellent document of one of the genres top groups. After, Basket of light, it's Pentangle's most essential album." Reply

"Solid psychedelic rock. “I Got a Line on You” is one of the great songs of the era—of any era." Reply
"I owned and played this album quite a few times way way back in the early 70's. One of the first 'super groups' (although Kooper, Still & Bloomfield never took part collectively on any of the album songs).
