Perhaps overall the best Move album. It has the right balance of accessibility and experimentation to stay radio friendly. The album rocks harder than their debut album but doesn't have the rock'n'roll excesses of "Looking on". "Hello Susie" is a pleasant psychedelic hard rocker followed by a more conventional very British "Beautiful daughter". "Cherry Blossom Clinic Revisited" has experimental instrumentation but gets a bit far-fetched with a classical music rip-off. "Fields of people" is a great psychedelia filled epics. The last two original album tracks are still lengthy but pale a bit in comparison with the first half. The bonus tracks are not that good and because it's all covers, they spoil the cohesiveness of the album. This is to the recommended Move album to start with.
