The album includes most of the band's best cuts - such as 'Slippin Into Darkness,' 'Cisco Kid,' 'World Is A Ghetto,' 'All Day Music,' 'Me & Baby Brother,' 'Why Can't We Be Friends,' and 'Low Rider.' One of the hippest funk, rock and soul groups on the Cali scene of the '70s, who just kept on making great music as the years went on!Now with our 45 RPM release, plated and pressed at QRP, the best-sounding version of this historic album gives listeners an even richer sonic experience. The dead-quiet double-LP, with the music spread over four sides of vinyl, reduces distortion and high frequency loss as the wider-spaced grooves let your stereo cartridge track more accurately.Clean, balanced, richly detailed. Just the way an Analogue Productions reissue should sound.Tracklist:Side AAll Day MusicSlippin' Into DarknessThe World Is A GhettoSide BThe Cisco KidGypsy ManSide CMe And Baby BrotherSouthern Part Of TexasWhy Can't We Be Friends?Side DLow RiderSummer
