The same year that Blues Creation gave us their amazing second album DEMON & ELEVEN CHILDREN, they recorded this collaboration with Carmen Maki. While it's not as consistently great as the aforemntioned album, it is a damn good seventies hard rock record. There's too much mellowed out stuff for my taste here, but Maki has a great voice, the bass is pummeling, and tracks like "Understand" and "Motherless Child" are truly great. There's a sort of Led Zep feel to the whole record, and the production is excellent. On the reissue we also get some great live material as well, so this is certainly something any student of old school heavy would want to own.by cirithungol, rateyourmusic
