Without question, this follow-up to Quicksilver Messenger Service's self-titled debut release is the most
accurate in portraying the band on vinyl in the same light as the group's critically and enthusiastically
acclaimed live performances. The album is essentially centered around the extended reworkings of
Bo Diddley's "Who Do You Love?" and "Mona," as well as the lesser lauded -- yet no less intense --
contribution of Gary Duncan's (guitar/vocals) "Calvary." This album is the last to feature the original
quartet incarnation of QMS. The collective efforts of John Cipollina (guitar/vocals), Greg Elmore (percussion),
David Freiberg (bass/vocals), and the aforementioned Duncan retain the uncanny ability to perform with a
psychedelic looseness of spirit, without becoming boring or in the least bit pretentious. The side-long epic
"Who Do You Love?" suite is split into an ensemble introduction and coda as well as four distinct sections for the
respective bandmembers. The perpetually inventive chops of QMS are what is truly on display here.
The musicians' unmitigated instrumental prowess and practically psychic
interaction allow them to seamlessly weave into and back out of the main theme...(AllMusic)
