One of the best rock album in South Africa early '70s. . Group - an innovative, anyone dissimilar. Use in rock electronics, made with his own hands (remember, this is 1970). Include (easily) to progressive, but in 1970 there was no progressive (or was?). The third song on the disc - The Kid He Came From Hazareth (sic), a Russian melody - who knows what? The recording quality of the audio-CD leaves much to be desired, but once again remind you that this is 1970, and this is not America, this is Africa (in the words of my friend Negorev). The group has two more albums - the first and third.
