"the six tracks on this cd are among the best tracks you will hear on one cd.The musical abilities of the band come to the fore on every track on this cd.one of the best british rock cd's to come out in the late sixty's early seventies.Do yourself a big favour and get this cd."

Fine work - reminds me of early Chicago and Colosseum

"I love rock bands with a horn section. So far I'm aware of four bands satisfying this criterion: Chicago (Live at Carnegie Hall), Colosseum (Live and Valentyne Suite), Rare Earth (e.g.
the fabulous 20 minute Get ready), and the Going's Easy.
This record is rough but beautiful, no overrepeating of motives, many sudden mood swings, and the singer has a very expressive voice that switches from gentle to angry instanteneously. There is hardly a weak moment on this album (I also recommend their debut Horizons). The frantic Borderline is as good as the beautiful ballad Love Magnet; though at a first listening the latter probably appeals more. It's a pity that this band only produced two albums."
