(For more background check my posts on the groups previous albums.) Their forth LP and the first after leaving Platina for Parlophone. The change to a big successful label helped them to broadened the horizon and gave a chance to better staffs, arrangements, pressings and audio. Anders Henriksson produced as usual, this time with bigger means allowing him to exceed. The eight self-penned songs are the strongest on the album. I don't care much for the two soul covers, but the rest is A-OK. "Fuzzy Patterns" and "You're Too Incomprihensible" are hard core psych and "Why Do You Hide It" orchestrated baroque. The two '45 tracks - "I'm Going Out" and "Every Raindrop Means A Lot" - melodic and catchy uptempo, and the rest just good odd songs. Only downside is it's too short - the whole album clocks in at just over 24 minutes. Issued in stereo only, but as most contemporary Swedish "stereos" it's narrow, made for play even with old mono pick-ups so it's fine audio either way. Re-issued on CD 2011by EMI/Sweden. First with label as shown here, thick unflexible vinyl and fully laminated cover. (SCÄ*)(DÄXÖ*) (PÖX)(CCÖ*)
