Customer Reviews:

tower of power.......2007-05-07

it's great to be able to get the cd's that are scarce.

Not the best, but not the worst.......2004-07-15

This album provides a mixture of reactions. While some of the tunes have the fire this band is known for producing, others will leave you scratching your head, wondering, "What were they thinking?" The title track is one of those catchy tunes that never gets old, helped by a light-hearted yet drving bass line. "Doin' Alright" and "You ought to be Havin'Fun" are also gems that have to be listened to multiple times to be appreciated, from the soulful singing of Edward McGee to the bump in the horn section. Then there's "I Think the World of You", and "While We Went to the Moon" with goofy synthesizers and lame horn licks that will make you laugh at the absurdity of it. Overall, though, I recommend this record for everyone but especially those fans who have some knowledge of TOP's history so that you can play this after listening recordings made with Warner Bros. and proceed onto albums they produced with Epic. A neat little music history lesson of one of music's greatest underappreciated bands.

The Real Review.......2003-03-15

While this LP wasn't their best, it has to be rated high because of CT's exceptional sound on the organ, especially when he leads off on the title track. Doin Alright is a nice song that kinds of reminds one of old black southern gospel quartets. You Ought to be Having Fun is one of those tunes that back in the day you couldblast through your car stereo system and have everyone on the street that heard it jammin or at the park dancin

McGee "Slaughters" Album.......2000-03-03

With Edward McGee's whiny vocal arrangements coupled with lyrics such as, "I can't stand to see the slaughter, but still I eats the meat", this album's "chops" are nothing but mindless butchery. The torture continues with sappy tracks like "You Ought to be Having Fun" and "Make Someone Happy". What would truly make me happy is throwing this album into a bonfire and roasting it to a crisp, golden brown. Eating this tainted "meat" will leave you with a bad taste in your mouth. Bon Appetite !

One of their better albums.........2000-01-28

Maybe he wasn't the best lead singer TOP has had, but this is a very good album and should be in any TOP collection.
