Gillan is the star of the family tree of Rainbow/Sabbath/Purple/Plant,and everyone that was part of that, They all shared the same musicians at onetime or another.You can look at Gillan's long line of Original Quality Rock, But he had it right from the start on this first album, daring arrangements, exotic treatments of old classics like THE TITLE TRACK.A great band featuring John Gustafson(Hard Stuff,Roxy Music),Ray Fenwick, Mark Nauseef, etc.Ian was always making pile driving rock,sure it gets funky, a little jazzy a little purple but its all quality rock,70's music is today's alternative music, he had it right in the 80's & 90's also...
