The more I listen this record the more I like it. I have to admit, I missed it when it originally came out, it was not released where I lived at the time, and later on, it was out of print for the longest time. I do however feel, that it was a huge missed opportunity by the band not to utilize John Wettons' undeniable writing and vocal abilities to a bigger extent. I believe he is featured only on one track as a vocalist, the track he wrote, out of a total of ten tracks. His playing was however felt all thru-out the record.

I have supported the band virtually from the beginning to this day. John was a great choice as a musician and vocalist to fill the vacant position of the bass player/vocalist. Fresh from the U.K. gig, I felt that his aggressive playing style and sound suited the band quite well. Unfortunately before we know it, he was gone. At least we have this single document from his short stint with the Ash.
