A landmark album from Skip Spence – the onetime lead singer of Moby Grape, cast out of the group on his own by the time of this debut solo album – a record that's as powerful as it is fragile, and which has been the one lasting musical legacy of the man himself!

The second Steely Dan album in the last three years, and only their third in the previous 20!

The last album in the classic run of Steely Dan – the final taste we'd have of the group until their surprising revival in the 90s!
