4.0 out of 5 stars we salute you
As a first album , this is interesting. Walking in the park has greenslade's heavy jazz. Valentyne suite is an extended jam with classical as well as jazz improv. This group came out with the grass is greener on dunhil later in the year. They were essentially England's BST with equal or better talent to the Moody's .

3.0 out of 5 stars Get Remastered version instead
This is Colosseum's first album. Like many first albums, it has a grouping of very good songs. They are a little rough and unfocused. But, most are fun and entertaining.

I give this version 3 stars, because there is a remastered version now available. However if you already own this one, I would not recommend going out and buying the remastered version...

This group came out with the grass is greener on dunhil later in the year. They were essentially England's BST with equal or better talent to the Moody's . Their focus was blues , jazz, classics and they did Hall of the Mountain King to thundering guitar solos by David Clempson. This is an intro lp with a taste of the talents to emerge in later offerings.

Colosseum's second album was Valentyne Suite, which was released in Europe. In the US, the second album was released as The Grass Is Greener and has some different tracks. It was common during these times to have different versions on an album in the US and in the UK, especially for "progressive" type music.
