| Review: | A relatively unknown album, this is a favorite of mine (and some of my friends). |
| | Some of the best tracks are 'Grow Some Funk of Your Own', 'Street Kids', and |
| | 'Billy Bones and the White Bird'. |
| | |
| | The only 'miss' in my mind is 'Feed Me'. |
| | |
| | BTW, every copy of this album / tape / CD I've heard is a bit 'off', almost like an |
| | amateur tape. I can only assume the master tapes have a slight flaw, almost as if |
| | the EQ wasn't set properly. |
