      Had this album as a child, and revisiting it with more mature ears, I don't think there is a weak song on the entire album.
      The Beatles (specifically McCartney) influence is undeniable, and that is partly why I feel it's so good.
      Love all of it, but "The Golden Rule" might be my favorite--it's dry wit (ala John Lennon) wouldn't be too out of place on "Sgt. Peppers"....IMO of course.

        My record is exactly the same as this version, even the Matrix / Runout, but 'Claire' isn't on it, Instead it has 'Alone again (naturally)' on it...

          My copy of this Cassette had track 2 side 1 and track 3 side 2 swapped around but the labels noted these the same as above. I think they had the LP version on the tape instead of the proper cassette version. Either that or they had the labels printed wrongly.

            Singer and Songwriter Gilbert O'Sullivan was on top in 1972: "Alone again" topped the US-charts, "Clair" and "Get down" were successfull, too, afterwards 1973/74 less copies of the new songs were sold and Gilbert failed.

            This album includes top-seller "Alone again (naturally)" and this is the single outbreaking longtime tune, which remains in the ears.
            All other songs are nice - but don't keep in mind. Words are personally and love-themes are the general topic.

            Harmless background for sunny silent hours, no surprises, mainstream at all.

            Maybe you like it for this - I can't help changing the record on my turntable before turning to the second side.
