Was a lucky man to have found this about 20 yrs ago, a few yrs before 'cds were
to become irrelevant' (?) (read this the other day)--Anyways, playing it now,
it is a two-fer from Mobile Fidelity... Cricklewood Green was the pick, but they
are both excellent. I think TYA really arrived with this release, and I think they
bordered on jazzy prog at times because of great vision, talent and creativity.
Alvin Lee's chops were copied far and wide by guitar players all over, some
who would become part of successful bands later.

Mobile Fidelity has an interesting history, and back when they were peaking,
what was considered great sound was not 'remastered brightness' that was
the hallmark of the compact disc earlier on and later. Lots of midrange and low
end, some would call it muddy, but Idon't thinks so. It was at the time
somewhat close to vinyl quality w/ more dynamic range than your
usual digital wave.

Since Brian Eno produced Remain in Light and his great masterpiece,
Another Green World made the stoner list too... probably one of my
top prog lps. Robert Fripp's guitar shred solo on St Elmos fire burns.
