No Lee I agree, was being a little facetious, shoulda put a smiley after my opening line :)
I too would say that the album is "Clear" as plainly shown on the LP label scan I linked too. Just surprised at how sites etc. list it as "Clear Spirit".
Hmm.. sladesounds check out Booklet 4 of my linked release below. Which clearly names the album in a list of their discography as "Clear". Nothing contentious about it "Clear" is the name of the album and "Spirit" is the name of the group. The label on the original also indicates this is the case.
lyrics wikia, inter alia, would suggest otherwise; and "clear spirit" possesses meanings, including a number that seem in sympathy with both the album lyrics, and the spirit of the times, and with randy california's (and other band members) drinking, as well as thinking habits.
- yr hmbl srppint. doubts the multilevel play on meanings of "clear spirit" were missed by the members of the band - hence the shared typography adopted for the two words on the album cover.
(going into the associations of any band member being - or not being - "a clear" might, i suspect, bring undesired attentions "from elsewhere".)
