REVIEWS:
"The album contained an impressive series of originals - many of
which have become rock standards - by band members. They include
'Albatross' and 'Black Magic Woman' by Green, 'I've Lost My Baby'
and 'Evenin' Boogie' by Spencer, and 'One Sunny Day' and 'Something
Inside of Me' by Kirwan. The group's live renditions of some of
these resulted in standing ovations from audiences during Fleetwood
Mac's second U.S. tour..." -Irwin Stambler, 1974
