I've been curious about this album for years and always hoped to run across a used vinyl copy in my travels...so I'm very happy to finally hear it here! Not what I expected, to be honest, in fact it's much better and a completely different animal. After only the one listen, I can't help but mention the strong comparisons to Harry Nilsson's best work (and the name-check in the first track is very funny). Absolutely clever and sophisticated pop songwriting - I'm definitely ready to hand over the cash for that pricey Japanese import CD of it now!
