A rare occasion of an album crashing into the British album charts way into the Top 10 without a hit single to accompany it, when this was at a time when albums still usually only sold on the back of hit singles. It was the following year when Psychedelia exploded that this started to change.

This was John's second album, but the first yet only to feature new guitarist Eric Clapton, who added that thick new undercoat to the group's sound, and even sing lead on one track, his first version of Robert Johnson's Rambling On M y Mind, which he re-recorded solo years later.

This album proved even more that Britain had well and truly become this second major ground for creativity.
