Parents is my all time favorite track-been enjoying it for over 30 years and still love it. The guitar is haunting in a good way its a shame he left the band and stopped performing.

I never even heard of this band until I looked up videos of people’s pet birds. I feel like culture has failed me. I missed a great band.

Cover artwork is by Roger Dean (ex Canterbury art College) who also did Yes, Uriah Heep and others in the seventies.Think he lives in the States now

I saw them again a few days ago, after 27 years. Even then they were LEGENDARY band. Let they play so long as possible.

Widziałem ich ponownie kilka dni temu po raz drugi w życiu, po 27 latach. Już wtedy 27 lat temu to był zespół LEGENDA. Oby jak najdłużej grali.
