One of the leading bands on the fertile Michigan rock scene of the mid- to late '60s,
SRC took a more artful approach to their music than peers such as the MC5 and the Stooges,
forging a sound that was dominated by expert musical interplay and occasional
classical influences that anticipated the progressive rock movement of the '70s,
while still possessing the passion and energy that was the trademark of the Detroit sound

SLEEVE VG+ but (please, see pictures and read above description)
SRC's second album isn't radically different from their debut, but it certainly captures the group
in more comfortable and energized form. Rather than go back into the studio,
the members of SRC used their recording advance to build a recording setup in their rehearsal space,
and on Milestones, the group seems more willing to push the songs in a harder and faster direction
without losing touch with their psychedelic and progressive influences.
Gary Quackenbush steps farther into the forefront with his lead guitar on Milestones,
demonstrating why he was one of the most acclaimed soloists on the Detroit scene in the 1960s,
and he bounces his lines off keyboard man Glenn Quackenbush and rhythm guitarist Steve Lyman
with skill and fire. Scott Richardson's vocals are also in excellent form on this album,
and he performs with greater passion and increased imagination on SRC's second effort,
though he can't quite overcome some of the lesser material. Milestones was an experiment,
it was a successful one, though it unfortunately didn't sell as well as the first album,
leading to the first steps toward SRC's eventual breakup...(AllMusic)
