Good hooks do well against persistant disco production Review written by John Fitzgerald, June 2nd, 2005 This album strikes me as an example of an artist having to play ball with a big label and pitting his musical wants against what the sound of that day was dictating. The disco flavor that overhangs on these proceedings does hurt and makes one not take this album as seriously at they normally would but the hooks are there if given half a chance. Stills impressively took part in writing every track here (except a great cover of Greg Allman's "Midnight rider" (which, though you can't hear Dave Mason's apparent vocals on the track, is the best moment on the record as the disco production does not intrude on this recording) and the much covered Buddy Holly track "Not fade away" which works well here due to it's effective fuzzy guitar sound and restraint from falling heavy in to the Bo Diddley rhythms that many persist in using when covering this tune) and from what I understand about Stephen, his guitar work had always been his strongest attribute (and not so much his writing) but this platter may be a good example of what he has to show along those lines. Three other tracks Mason does vocals on here (though they don't really stand out) are the opening horn led disco upbeat fluff of "You can't dance alone", "We will go on" (which again has the disco flavor but it's lighter here with flute flourishes and a good guitar break at the end) and "What's the game" which is the most disco sounding song on the album though it does try it's best to rock. As for the rest, the title track is more acoustic guitar featured with strings that have a fiddle approach at times (the sound of this one makes you wonder why DM was not on this track instead as it seems closer to what he was doing musically at the time then the tracks he was on from this album), "Beaucoup yumbo" is a fair slow bluesy piano featured dragger, "Woman Lleva" is a mid tempo piano drenched ditty which has good promise on the verses but the choruses are a let down. "Lowdown" has good guitar stuff throughout and is a haunting minor key grinder and the closing "Can't get no booty" is a good shuffling rocker but it sounds rather muffled which waters it down somewhat. I think this is an album that will benefit from a CD release though, which as far as I know, has yet to happen.
