This album was before its time. Sahb were brilliant. These guys were sensational without Alex..today's rock bands know fuck all.70s are the best. Keep rockin to all. Andy. X
Me too. Saw them at The Queensway Hall in Dunstable that year on the tour as well. Saw SAHBs's last gig (I believe) in Glasgow a few years back, took my boy along and he was really impressed. Don't know how many times I've bought Next and The impossible Dream on CD.
This song takes me back to a girl called Paula... However, very time I hear it, what strikes me most is the rhythm, Ted McKenna's drums, Zal's guitar, perfect. A very underated band.
One of my favorite songs. This and "Big Boy". The band really showed their stuff on this album. Haven't heard this in 35 yrs. Thought I'd never hear it again. Thank you so much.
I think there should be a society/club/group formed for the most underrated album of all time, and the irony it was done in the name of and yet without the sensational Alex Harvey. Oh and you have to have listened to it in your bedroom on extra large black spongey headphones on preferably a Waltham music centre.
Thanks for posting :)...one of my Fav albums and bands of time....man could these guy play...lov Zal's guitar on "Smouldering"....great vocals also...love to have seen them live...
As much as I love SAHB WITH Alex, this album has a different, almost mystical feel to it and, dare I say it, is a more consistent album than several of the actual SAHB offerings.
I bought it when it came out. The song writing is great but I think the production could have been a bit better. Maybe a remaster? I'm still listening to the record rather than a cd.
Im assuming you're sorted 2 years later Sharon. If not, Ive got it on a cd with some sahb rarities. Id be glad to copy it and post it on. Got to spread the word of this great band. Its no problem. Hail Vibrania. Steve.

Brilliant album , playing it this week , saw them on this tour as a 16 year old kid ...fantastic stuff ...
Saw them at the Marquee doing this. Best gig ever. They were truly sensational.
I bought this album (Vinyl) in 1977 after I heard Smouldering on norwegian Radio , Wow !!!
Amazing, amazing band it never grows old .....timeless
All LP is excellent. A 💎.
One of the greatest nights i had as an 18 year old sat on the edge of the stage at Dunelm house in Durham listening and watching these guys perform
Im jealous, they were amazing.

Proud to be a member of the club that owned and cherished this album, through the teenage bedroom , naively thinking they had written it for me!!
Was a major S.A.H.B. fan from day one. This somehow passed me by!!. Look forward to checking the whole album
