Bob not really featured but a good soul rave up
Review written by John Fitzgerald, February 7th, 2005

It's strange that this album is billed as "Bob Welch with Head West" as you would think he's featured on here but I wouldn't say so. The album's main presence is a heavy organ sound with strong drums and Welch's guitar is there but more in a rhythmic way so it tends to hide a little although it's a little thicker on the solo slabs on "Faces". My favorite aspect of this album is that it's more instrumental than you might expect, check the drum solo driven epic track from drummer Henry Moore called "Tired of hangin' on" and the
opening title track which is my favorite and the thunderous totally instrumental track "Attention". Keyboardist Robert Hunt is the main force here as he takes part in writing all songs included except the two songs written by Moore and two other songs written by Welch. Speaking of which, one of the two Welch penned numbers, "Someday" is really the only one with Bob on lead vocals throughout and it's an acoustic mystical tune which is great for us but out of step with the rest of the record. The other song Bob wrote on his own, "Starchild" is a slow soul on which Welch takes a back seat. There's rampant energy on this platter which may not be typical sounding for this genere but I don't care, it sounds great to me!

According to Bob Welch, this album was reissued after he became more well known with the "Bob Welch with Head West" title.
