Recommendations
Reviews
- Original 1975 Fantasy release has slightly different lettering / wording on the cover spine to the Fantasy re-issue - mainly 'Printed in USA' (The re-ssue does not have this on spine)
- The track "If Only I Could Prove To You" has to be one of the most sublime grooves I've ever heard, the strings are perfect, goosebumps everytime I hear this tune. If only it was longer.
