3 stars Their second, and often maligned album, which is much better than its reputation, as it contains a variety of pretty good songs. Unfortunately, the only attention it received was for its controversial album cover, which didn't do it any favors. Following the lack of success of their more progressive debut, the band retreats away from progressive rock on this 2nd album. The band is searching for an identity and style on this album, and so tries a bit of everything hoping to find something that sticks. They hop around from pop to rock to folk to jazz to blues and even some country without landing on a distinctive sound or style. But the songs are pretty good, except for the misguided straight-rocker, Popper, which is one of the worst songs in their whole catalog. Overall, a nice enjoyable album. It's a bit all over the place in sound and musical direction, but you can definitely hear bits and pieces of the band they would become. Here they are still searching for their sound, but its a nice journey. Best Tracks:Your Poppa Don't Mind, Traveled, Coming Home to See You, Forever. Weakest tracks: Popper, Times Have Changed. Rating: 3.5 stars
