ORIGINAL 1969 first pressing finds the revamped Shadows Of Knight with pretty much the same format as before (that's a good thing!) with driving garage-rock moves filled with noisy fuzzy guitar injections, pulsating bass, and thrilling raw vocals taking the album to another level...

While their third studio effort isn't as well known as the prior two, it's probably the best of them (even without 'Gloria') as they demonstrate more versatility and range. There's garage blues, garage psych, and even some very odd but fascinating forays into neo-bubblegum, which is the best of the style and not a turn-off sound the way they play...along with the sort of sneering garage rock that was their stock in trade ("I Wanna Make You All Mine" and a different version of "Shake") and a lascivious blues workout on "Back Door Man," Shadows Of Knight wade though psychedelic moves ("Uncle Wiggley's Airship"), attitudinal garage-punk ("I Am What I Am"), hard rock with lots of fuzzed-up guitar soloing ("I'll Set You Free" and "Bluebird"), and moody poprock gems ("Alone" and "Times & Places"). Without much in the way of a musical focus (and with producers Kasenetz and Katz reportedly loading down the songs with instrumental overdubs without the group's OK), Shadows Of Knight third and final album delivers enough great moments to make this an interesting and effective album
