This album was a bit of a comeback for Spirit I guess, at least as recording artists, because this was (IMO) the first "proper" Spirit album since Farther along. And it's a good one too! The line-up for this album was Randy, Ed and John Locke. Among the guests were Mark Andes, who played bass on two tracks and wrote the music for Hard love. The production is great, sometimes it sounds like an 80's version of Sardonicus. I've noticed that some of my friends (who sometimes might be a little sceptical towards Spirit's music) likes this album. It was the first Spirit album I bought, and it is a good introduction to Spirits music. My favorite tracks are: Thinking Of, The Prisoner, One Track Mind and the title track.
