‘A timeless and unique album that stands up to, and sounds completely different from, the very best of the progressive genre’ – Galactic Ramble

‘By the time Second Hand released this, their second album, the progressive elements were much stronger and the group went further with experimentationÖ There are plenty of high-energy rockers and long, wild organ solos’ –

‘Fully developed progressive compositions and all kinds of keyboards dominate. Often there are two or three different ones simultaneously, producing many very different textures... A very good record’ – The Tapestry Of Delights
