Some of the tracks never featured on studio recordings, making this unique album a vital part of any Gentle Giant collection. "For us, this CD provides a real memory jolt - reminding us of songs that we haven't thought about for a long time and brings nostalgia for the early hopes and dreams of a new band"-Gentle Giant.

"I've seen them in Central Park, twice in the 70's...been listening to them and have most of their albums (last two were sell-out commercial/top 40 pop...didn't bother getting them)and thought that this new import would be the "best of the best" based on the year when it was created. The songs are definetely one of a kind/never heard tunes. IT SOUNDS LIKE THEY RECORDED THIS FROM A HAND HELD CASSETTE PLAYER OR A POCKET RECORDER. IT'S A MUDDLED, UNCLEAR RECORDING. STAY CLEAR OF THIS ALBUM, UNLESS YOU CAN GET IT DIGITALLY REMASTERED."
