One of the greatest music albums of the 70s, heavy, etherial, theatrical, brisk, raw, melodic, and ambissious. From the low end bass and raw Under My Wheels, to the melodic Be My Lover, theatrical and moving Halo of Flies, melodic songs of Desperado and Yeah, Yeah, Yeah and the nervousnes of You Drive Me Nervous
And the two etherial, raw, heavy and ambissious pieces of Dead Babies, Killer (and again) Halo of Flies. the albums have so much layers. To me 'Dead Babies' is the most interesting piece, the riff is very bigg, all rhe players are vital to its fullness, bass, organ, guitar and drums and vocals are top notch but so also on the title track. GENIOUS- |

Desperado is a very good song, very spessial with a warmth and nice cross between folksy warmth and electric rock, the mix of cello, violin, perhaps contrabass and warm and hot electric guitar and bass.

Halo of Flies, followed by Dead Babies, which segues into Killer. One of my all time favorite albums.
