A shame that, as one critic put it, that Moby Grape could "never get a break", even now. Thanks for the info on this one, probably a long time, if ever, away from seeing a CD release.

I rarely venture beyond the Grape's self-titled debut, but I listened to this one twice today, and it will get many more spins in the future. The Little Feat comparison is apt - this definitely has that funkified country feel that makes Lowell George and friends so enjoyable. You're right, the steel drum on 'About Time' is a cool and unusual sound. And the Skip Spence song is outstanding as well. All in all a great recco - thanks a bunch!
