The last vestige of PG&E in a "big band" (keyboards, horns and percussion) format, complete with The Blackberries on backup vocal harmony. Highlights are some amazingly tasty lead guitar parts, supplied by "Fast Kenny" Utterback and an excellent rhythm section of Frank Petricca on bass and Ron Woods on drums. Charley Allen's vocals are the defining sound of PG&E.

The last album of PG&E in 1973, it’s more a solo album by Charlie Allen which is in fact the only original member of the group, and is accompanied by many studio musicians. The album moves away from the rock to sound more funk & soul, an area where Charlie Allen’s voice is perfect.
