Title: One delight among good material
Review: Shocking Blue created a substantial quantity of material, much of which is better than the famous "Venus". The gem on this album is the haunting "Daemon Lover". The pleasant "Water Boy" is notable for featuring a sitar. There are a variety of musical styles here ("Sally Was A Good Old Girl" is country, for instance) and this adds to the impression that the musical quality is uneven. Several songs (including "Little Cooling Planet" and "Seven Is A Number In Magic") have unusual rhythms that dominate the other aspects of the music. Generally, like all of Shocking Blue's music, this CD has a peculiar charm stemming from many sources, one of which is that much European rock sounds akilter to American ears.
