On their third and final album, which hit the record stores in 1978, Stanky Brown offer a sound here that matches their cover appearance very well -- confident and sassy 70s cats who can put out a record that's tight, yet loose -- on a set that's very close to the genre that got all the right funding and attention in the studio, but that never fully got its due in the mainstream! The songs are all well-written -- catchy, but never too sappy -- and the style is slightly sharper than the smoothness of the AOR generation -- on tracks that include "Falling Fast," "Chains," "Chance On Love," "She's A Taker," "Please Don't Be The One," "Master Of Disguise," and "Back In Your Arms Again"
