This was a very interesting album considering the band members are Nigerian, and I am assuming it was recorded over there. I don't think I know of too many Psychedelic Rock outfits from that continent. Also, the release date (1973) made me think it was possibly recorded in the 60's, and only released at a later date. I have no idea on that, but the sounds certainly fit the previous decade more.

It isn't particularly polished, but it has great elements within it. The funky bits are nice and the instrumental sections come really close to being something fantastic. Not too sure about the vocals, but they weren't offputting. The slower bits towards the second half are a bit naff as well (It's Not Easy / Try And Love) but it ended quite well.

Overall it was an interesting listen and I will be returning to it and maybe their other material.

6/10
