A few great songs back in the day but none to be found here, for me anyway. Never much of an album band, a best of would be the best way to go. Formed in 1968 in California, looks like they hung it up around 1976, only to return for the oldies circuit. Most of their hits were covers. This is their seventh album, and they were on the downside of their career. This one did reach #26 in the states, with Shambala at #3. Don't think they ever had any success across the pond.
I DO NOT LIKE THIS ALBUM
Worst Track - Singer Man
Best Track - Let Me Serenade You
I will serenade you, all along the way
I will serenade you, anyway you say
Take you to the country, I'll take you to the shore
Show you to my garden, I know you'll make it grow
If you let me serenade you
You know that's what you come for
So that I will serenade you
I wake you in the morning, on your sunrise time
Your fire in the evening when it blows outside
If you let me serenade you, you know that's what you come for.
So that I will serenade you.
And when the walls begin to fall
Can't hold back the joy
That love will conquer all
Every moment, every day
If you want to hold me I will, I will, I will, I will stay
Let me serenade you, I will serenade
If you want to hold me, yeah, one more, one more now
Every body keep a singing, I sing it
I really love you baby
I will serenade you, I will serenade you
All along the, whoa
Let me sing it, whoa
I will sing a
I will serenade you, baby
I will serenade you
No, no, no, no
