Heads Hands & Feet - Heads Hands & Feet (1971) 

A well crafted piece of rock music. This Eponymous LP shows the bands' musicianship throughout and in particular exudes some truly wonderful drumming and guitar playing . The analog production and engineering is in top form. Where this LP fails is its lack of strong melody and memorable hooks. The LP is quite diverse including tympani on Little Bit Lonely with a Beach Boys Pet Sounds overtone. Numerous attempts were made to grab the ear of the listener but it mostly seems to fall short. There's plenty of blue-eyed soul, funk and ballads with several bright spots just little sticky cerebral substance. I make this comparison as an example with their Old Grey Whistle Test performance of a song called "Warming Up The Band". A few exceptions might be the tasty Song For Suzie, Devil's Elbow (somewhat of a Gregg Allman sound) and bluesy Tirabad with it's inclusion of Albert Lee playing a slide through a chorus (or possibly a Leslie - common back in the day) note however how the track fades on the vocal line..somewhat out of place. For any Tony Joe White fans, you may enjoy this one notch further than your average listener. The TJW sporadic flavoring are remarkably similar on certain tracks ~ Anthony G.
