(5 out of 5 stars)

"This collection is the fusing of the two commercially released Flock albums. The first album, "The Flock" is one of the most unique rock-based albums of all time. That's where the five stars come from. My review of this album, listed under the title "The Flock", gives a song-by-song description of what makes this music great.The second album "Dinosaur Swamps" is new to me. I own a vinyl copy that I found last year in a used record shop, and being familiar with "The Flock" and never having never heard this before I was quite excited to get it, but ultimately disappointed. I have to admit I should give it another listen or two to give it a fair shot, but my impression is that this was one of those bands that just had one good album in them, and this wasn't it. So I recommend "The Flock", but you can't go wrong plunking down a few extra bucks and getting this combined collection."
