3 stars Not a bad record but certainly not one of their best.

"Roadhouse Blues" is the perfect song to start this record off, opening with piano and harmonica with the guitar helping to keep the rhythm. It's pretty hard not to like this bluesy number.There are some memorable lyrics in this song as well."Waiting For The Sun" is both psychedelic and spacey at times with some tasteful guitar.

"Peace Frog" is an uptempo, catchy tune with a nice guitar solo. "Blue Sunday" slows things down and Jim's vocals are relaxed and the soundscape is dreamy. "Ship Of Fools" is an infectious song with some good guitar. "Land Ho !" is catchy with some good guitar melodies. And I like the instrumental parts in "Queen Of The Highway".

Nothing even remotely complex here but some good melodic tunes for your listening pleasure.
