5.0 out of 5 stars Funky souly gutsy 70s bluesrock with a sensitive side, December 23, 2005

Funky souly gutsy 70s bluesrock with a sensitive side. This is *so* much better than the rather banal first album. The band's sound is quite complex in places and there are few weaknesses in terms of musicianship (*everything* is good). Many tracks are characterized by interesting and unusual changes of key and pace, e.g., the band can go from an upbeat funky style to melancholy in a few bars (Leaves in the Wind): impressive. Most of the songs are about either lost love or love gone bad -- right in the Free / Bad Company tradition. Favourite tracks: Blue Soul; Stop Doing What You're Doing; Sweet Sweet Beauty. This stuff is 30 years old in 2006: they just don't make 'em like this anymore. Its a classic but known to only a few.

4.0 out of 5 stars Too bad it's no longer available..., February 17, 2001

This album was one of Paul Kossoff's best. This is a must listen to those of us who remember bands like Crawler (what this band became) and Charlie (a band that later infused some members of Crawler). Yes, it is the rougher edge of the 70's harmony and fusion type of bands, but lets face it...no matter if it was the rowdier or poppier side - we bought this stuff and loved it! Since it is no longer available, I suggest the import Back Street Crawler. I have that one on LP as well and still enjoy it.

This is Koss`s epitaph..leaves in the wind indeed.
This album demonstrates why Koss had more soul in his little finger than the speed freaks of flash guitar.
If this album doesn`t move you,check your pulse!
