1 stars I am completely staggered when I saw the ratings for this album.

IMO, this is not a good work and it doesn't need more than a one star rating. Prog music is absolutely not on the rendezvous and you'll have to experience some very poor songs to go from the opening track to the closing number.

I can tell you that this is a painful experience... No songs being worth a ? cent really. "Strawbs" released I don't what with this poor album.

By no means would Strawbs attract any new devoted fan who could appreciate this music. I am really voiceless while listening to such a poor recording. But I am use to this since I decided to review a band's catalogue from their early days to the finish, whatever the quality.

Frankly, I should have avoided the experience with this zero star worth album. If I can only advice: stay away from this useless music; you would do yourself an immense favour.

The only song that can be referred as a good one is the excellent Tina Dei Fada. The only emotional track which also features a fantastic guitar solo. You know, the type of Carlos ones that turns a good track into a great one. Again, I am still wondering how the band was able to release such a good instrumental track in this ocean of very poor tunes.

There is only one rating possible of course. One thin and lonely star (but even this is way beyond what is worth).
