Wonderful debut by this British band. Gravy Train isn't exactly the most
progressive band out there, this here is more of a hard rock album,
a Tull meets Sabbath hybrid, with heavy guitar riffs from Norman Barrett,
and Ian Anderson-like flutes from J.D. Hughes. This is a more aggressive
offering than their next album, (A Ballad Of A) Peaceful Man, and no
orchestrations either. And there's no "Alone in Georgia" here, which is
a plus for me. "The New One" has a rather strong Tull-sound,
with some "Living in the Past" type of guitar rhythms to go with it.
"Dedication to Sid" (often in reference to Syd Barrett) is a rather odd
piece that gets more experimental at the end. "Coast Road" is a blues piece,
a bit like _This Was_-era Tull, based on blues riffs and flute.
"Enterprise" features some really killer guitar riffs. "Earl of Pocket Nook"
is a very extended number that includes lots of guitar solos.
