Can't tell you until a few more listens to be honest, bought it after
reading a review in 1001 Albums (what appears to be a 'coffee table'
type Xmas present but is a riveting reference book, has introduced me to
Fred Neil, Monks, Zombies, Paul Revere etc.) - the pundit reckons it's
their best, also helped that Connie Plank is producing.....btw. will be
at the Headcount gig on Friday.

Cheers,

Rob

who else could KJ ever be a support act for?
Led Zeppelin,King Crimson,Queen,Sex Pistols,Gary Numan?
There's only a handfull of possible acts that are more famous and have
influenced KJ
