My view :
THE perfect album. Upbeat & melancholy & fun & sombre & ballads & lyrically haunting - all these merge wonderfully.
There isn't a weak track on this album.
"A Spaceman Came Travelling" is the classic CdeB that has appeared on many Christmas compilation albums but never been a major UK hit - IT SHOULD HAVE BEEN !!!
"Spanish Train", "Patricia" and "Lonely Sky" are long standing favourites at concerts and
"The Tower" deserves revival
