Really embracing that trademark 70's Philly Soul sound on this one. The production on this is amazing. I think it might be the best sounding earlier H&O album in their catalog.

Hello, i have two copies, one on yellow vinyl, one on red vinyl. Purchased in indianapolis. Story i was told is they are one of a kind test pressings done after hours by rouge employees at the plant. Message me if you might be interested, i bought with intention to sell. No outer sleeve.

I am curious to know why I don't seem to find the gate fold of this particular album. I have two different versions one appears to be the German press which has a double sided poster if you will in it the other is the gate fold that has the same pictures that poster aforementioned has

I own a copy of this pressing of the album, but the B side actually plays the B side of an album by Chet Atkins instead? I've never been able to find any information about this mistake. So, if anyone has heard about this, I would love to know why it happened? I've been dying to know since I realized it a few years ago. The play quality is great but like I said, half the album is missing because it plays Avalon by Chet Atkins instead.

Excellent pressing. Mastered at Alan Zentz Mastering. Very quiet. Clear lows; clean highs.
