Well, after re-aquainting myself with this after a gap of several years, I gave it 7/10 - 'cos it's "a good album". It's never going to make my 'Desert Island Discs' list, but well worth a listen.
1/10 Music for BOF's
2/10 Is this Prog? I hate Prog.
3/10 Same old thing.
4/10 Its alright I suppose.
5/10 Some nice sounds going on.
6/10 Quite like a couple of tracks.
7/10 This is a good album.
8/10 Great guitar and melodies.
9/10 Up there with the best of them.
10/10 A timeless classic , brilliant.

Much like Kieth has written above really.
It is a good album and I did go and see them live at Hemel Hempstead Pavilion many years ago.
I have only this album from Wishbone Ash and listening to it again recently I cant see this changing; one is enough.
7/10
