THE OTHER SIDE

This is a superb album, up with their best work (Tab, Recycled and Remember). I stopped following them after Magic is a Child. I discovered them mid-seventies but i had always found their albums very uneven (...Sounds Like This (tracks that didn't make their first few albums perhaps?), Down To Earth (got this around 2015 after reading a review that lauded it) and Magic Is a Child.) being the worst i had come across.

I stumbled across this accidently and was totally blown away by how good it was. Look Through Me is probably the weakest track but its not awful. And there is a diverse array of style from the strightforward rock of I'm On Fire, to pure prog Love Is/The Other Side (which is clearly for the late Roye Albrighton) and ballads (Look Through Me). Most of the tracks also feature outstanding solos.
