Many thanks! I've been searching for this scandalously non-Cd issue ever since seeing Aubrey Small support fellow-stablemates Medicine Head at the Marquee in the 70s. A 'small' measure of this band is that I have never forgotten the catchy 'Gardenia' to this day!! I recommend another lost non-CD classic: Nick Pickett's 'Silversleeves' (Reprise/WB)as another example of magical musical art. Keep on truckin', Brian
