Timeline

"For me the best of the Fish era, but ironically because of the darker edge to the album, the topic of the strain of constant touring and excess which would be the reason for Fish's departure. The version I have is also enhanced by bonus tracks that would have been an equally great 5th album." (bartyMJ, S, )
"Not as adventurous as their previous LPs, but worth a serious listen." (sabbacc108, A, )
