This album enjoys the enthusiastic support of many devoted admirers.
The band, consisting of Steve Giles and Martin Weaver on guitars, Clive Thoneycroft on drums, and Ronald Johnson on bass, moves from "fuzz hard rock" to psychedelic rock, and from progressive rock all the way to acid rock.
This was the only album recorded by this band; initially, only 64 copies were pressed in the first batch.
Most of the copies were given as gifts to the band members' families and close friends, but some were sold.
The color cover was printed in just 12 copies and distributed among the band members and their girlfriends.
It was later reissued several times; now it is considered one of the most valuable records, and is probably regarded as one of the most expensive albums by collectors, with original copies sold at prices ranging from £6,000 to £25,000 depending on the version, and that's it...
