Thank you, Veritgo Swirl website, for the following information:
“Boy, this is scary! Much more so than any hard-rock flirting with the adversary. It all starts innocently enough, but soon diverts into half-lit and spooky side-streets. Strange threatening dissonants [sic] abound, suddenly it’s cool jazz-rock that finds no end. The suite on side B is even more creepy. You may think Meek is singing, but in reality she is exorcising her very soul. She means it! Some jazz-voodoo sets in and holy mackerel, there she is again! How much katharsis [sic] can you take?
You can hardly think of anything else than Eve’s apple while looking at the cover during the listening sessions. The lilac leaf is a nice find, but the execution of the painting is quite below average.
The lettering fits both the image and the music and is therefore a success.
An apple silhouette inside the gatefold holds a picture of the musicians. If you want to see a really starry-eyed girl, then look at Anna Meek. Incredible!
A cassette release in Britain has NOT been confirmed. Anyone?
Notes: A promotional folder by Vertigo from 1971 shows this album with the wrong band name ”Caterpillar”. If there is anyone who owns such a sleeve, please contact us.”
