Ginger Bakers drums are present all through the album, Eric Clapton's guitar fills each and every empty space left and on top of all we hear Stevie Winwood with his unique vocal gymnastics. When Rick Grech adds his Violin the sound is bubbling like an Alchemist's Magic Potion. There is just too much going on. But none of that matters much. The strength lies mainly in the beauty of the Songs, the meaninful lyrics and the way they are expressed. In The Presence Of The Lord is such a positive and heartfelt Tune, i cannot think of any other song that comes close to it. Had To Cry Today or Can't Find My Way Home are perfect for a summer afternoon with lots of mellow moods.
Side 2 is more adventurous - Do What You Like is exactly that : 15 plus minutes of 4 outstanding musicians doing what they like best. Bass, Drums, Vocals and Organ are always present and keep things simmering; when Rick Grech's Violin meets Eric Clapton's Lead Guitar Licks it all bubbles over.
Fantastic !
