Hi again-
   Oh, yeah, "Songwrighter" , "The Promise", Lodge's "Natural Avenue" were all pretty bad.  Didn't hear any of Ray Thomas' or Graeme Edge's stuff.
   I liked the cover art on "The Promise", using colors produced from polarized light through crystals to produce a stained-glass look.

Not that ANY of them were great, but actually, and surprisingly, IMHO, Ray's is the best of the lot.  Natural Avenue got 1 listen shortly after its release before being put back into its slip cover where it's remained since then.  Is there anyone on the list who actually has a copy of Edge's stuff (provided they didn't burn it upon 1st listening)?
 
BTW, I swear that there is Mellotron on "Who Are You Now" from Blue Jays.
