"The hit songs on this compilation are only the tip of the iceberg for this band. "You Are Gone" and "And Our Love" are stunning; they could have been movie soundtrack music due to the inventive orchestrations and production by Guercio (who went on to produce Chicago). "Pitied Be The Dragon Hunter" is a lovely slice of late-60s fantasy, and "Foreign Policy" is a terrific montage of great orchestration and JFK excerpts(!). "The Married Life" is hilarious, and "Why Don't You Love Me" is a prime example of garage-band schlock, complete with cheesy-sounding Farfisa organ (or something that sounds very much like it). This is highly recommended; along with "In One Ear and Gone Tomorrow", a very good sample of highly evolved late-60s rock."
