Forgotten for a reason

(2 out of 5 stars)

"This was to be Mike Heron's entry into the late seventies American pop market that had the misfortune of being released the same week that the label (Casablanca) that issued it declared bankrupcy. This glossy, over-produced album never had a chance. Instantly bound for the cut out bins, it never got promotion or airplay, this is his most removed from the ISB style that he ever released. The songs themselves aren't bad, indeed he has keep performing Mexican Girl and a couple of others but, the layer upon layer of slick studio sound tires the ear quickly. Producer Hugh Murphy had hit it big with Gerry Rafferty about that same time, but missed with Mike Heron. For the most rabid ISB/Mike Heron fans only."
