This album can be said to be the origin of Ben Sidran, the magician of syncopated refrains.
The urbane lyricism rooted in jazz and blues and the San Francisco spirit that comes from his background in the Steve Miller Band are skillfully mixed together to create a truly hip flavor.
The funk idioms on the album are stylish, including "Poor Girl" with its bouncing Hammond organ and "About Love" with its mellow electric piano.
