I was really looking forward to it (I lurrrrve this album), but I was having some outside repair and maintenance work done on my house - originally I didn't think they'd be able to do it 'til Tuesday because of the weather forecast, but the weather turned out to be lovely, they were available, and I couldn't very well say no. And while I didn't exactly have to supervise, I just thought it would be bad form to stick my headphones on for 45 minutes.

I really need to work on getting my priorities straight, obviously.

Anyway, I look forward to reading this thread later!

Oh wow, I forgot all about this. Was gonna try to sync with you guys. Oh well, It's a great album. The mono/stereo double CD is the way to go if you don't do vinyl like me. Same with the first album. I differ from C in regard to the third one though. It's average.

I was going to say something similar after Chas’ last response and that the 1st to the second are head and shoulders above third but the third has got some decent stuff on it that is fairly average in comparison stop there I think

Just looking at the song titles to refresh my memory, I think C.J. Fish (1970) is probably at least as strong as Together - though it was a largely different band then (only Joe and Barry left from the classic lineup) and different times...

Here We Are Again has some moments. "For No Reason" is especially lovely.

The debut album is a cracker Chas - it takes some beating!
