    Really good album. It’s too bad they never made it much further. There was a ton of potential.

      The image on the back cover for the widespread A&M release of this album was taken in the still operating Olivette Diner in St. Louis.

        Really enjoyed this album. It was partner who introduced me to Head East. "Never Been Any Reason" is probably the best known song from this album, but "Brother Jacob" is another one of my favorites from this album. All of the songs are pretty good.

          I picked this up at a thrift store for a quarter as a joke b/c I liked the album art but every song turned out to be pretty good.
