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.

That's why I was listening to the blasted thing - I was told there was some on that track, but I can't hear it! Interesting life I lead...
