Here's another CDRWL item that I recently picked up. My original notes stated:
Fascinating nine piece horn rock band formed by (then) active members of the Detroit Symphony Orchestra. The horns are exquisitely performed, though the rock sections are a tad more restrained and pedestrian for a band with these kind of quals. Still, the guitar and organ work is efficient. The vocal harmonies have a 60s vibe to them.

That's a pretty decent Zagat styled review and mostly represents my feelings about it today. For a band with this kind of background, it does rock pretty hard especially given its 1970 vintage, a year that was very transitional in America. My rating stayed the same, but I see this one as a keeper. Unique in its own way.
Ownership: LP: 1970 London. Gatefold. Recent acquisition (2023) from Horizon Records in Greenville, South Carolina while there on business.
As of this update the album remains without a reissue of any kind (6/11/24).
