I FIRST HEARD THIS ALBUM AT SMALL ART HOUSE CINEMA IN TORONTO BACK 1969. I WAS TALKING TO A FRIEND AND THEN I HEARD EAR SHREDDING CHORDS OF TWENTYFIRST CENTURY SCHIZOID MAN, I WAS TOTALLY ENGAGED IN AN INSTANT AND HAVE BEEN A LIFE LONG FAN EVER SINCE. I HAVE RECOMMENDED THIS ALBUM TO THE MUSICALLY ADVENTUROUS FOR DECADES AND THE RESPONSE I RECEIVED FROM NEW LISTENER HAS ALWAYS BEEN OVERWHELMING POSITIVE. IT IS TIMELESS CLASSIC OF PROGRESSIVE ROCK, AND WITH AN AMAZING ALBUM COVER AS WELL . DARE TO LISTEN AND YOU WILL BE REWARDED.
