| Well, that was mixed. The Good bits were really good, but not so good bit, well not bad as such, but he'll do better. Not sure if I should give this a 3 or 4 ★ review. Dosn't help that the first song has been rendered unlistenable through over play.  |

| I went for 3 in the end. Also this is a 1976 re-issue, not 72 as I'd thought.

It's just occurred to me, he's not singing like Antony Newley anymore.
'Tony Newley?' 'No, I don't know who it was.' |

| I loved this song when I was little.
I remember it was re-released probably in probably the mid-'70s and watching the 'video' for it on TotPs on my Mum's B&W telly.

| Has anyone else ever combined the Mellotron and Stylophone to such brilliant effect?

| Still, it's hardly bad.
Quite impressive really.
A big, brash number.
A bit restless perhaps...

| I've had to twiddle with the graphic equaliser for a more pleasant listening experience. Bass up - treble down.
