An album of reworkings which is strangely unobjectionable. Dave Cousins usually takes the lead vocal, but this is John Ford if I'm not mistaken - first appearing on their debut album ...
Loving the banjo on this one too ... another one with a different lead Vocal - Dave Lambert who also wrote it ...

"No More Words" ...
And the opposite ... "Simple Lyric" -

a classy effort from the then sick Freddie Mercury of the Platters classic
lyrics seem poignant in hindsight...

^He was quite something - recorded right up until he absolutely couldn't anymore. If you haven't already seen it, I highly recommend Days of our Lives. Excellent documentary.
Steve Perry's debut album with Journey - classic track - astonishing voice ...
