(5 out of 5 stars)

"After the original line-up of Spirit broke up quite a few people ignored their releases. It' really a shame because they continued to release great albums and these two are no exception. Son Of Spirit is basically Randy & Ed continuing what they started on Spirit of '76 while Farther Along is a reunion of all the original band except Jay Fergeson. Having the two as a set just makes it better. The songs go from strength to strength with the only clinker being a rather limp version of Yesterday. Rock, jazz, blues, country, folk all rub shoulders with incredible musicianship in a band that should have been superstars but are more remembered by their influence on others."
