ONE DAY WITH YOU

THERE'S NO TIME

FOR YOU AND ME

Release and Reception

According to Lillian Roxon's

 Rock Encyclopedia,

 the album was released in

 December 1969.

 Reviewing for

 The Village Voice

 the following June,

 Robert Christgau

 gave the album a

 "B" grade and wrote:

 "There ought to be hundreds

 of groups like this

 one hard, 

competent, 

slightly commercial 

but there probably aren't

 more than 20.

 This is not especially original, 

but it's good, 

and I'll bet they're a

 stone happy gas live."

 All Music's 

Mark Deming 

later gave it 

three-and-a-half 

out of five stars

 and appraised it in 

comparison to the 

band's harder

 previous records, 

calling it

 "a fun album that 

generates an

 impressive groove ...

 a more laid-back

 and relaxed effort, 

but it still rocks with 

a strong and steady roll
