I have the album, and yes, they are worth getting into.
Maybe half the LP is a pseudo-jazz-rock kind of deal that I haven't really warmed up to (never got it with "Warm Spot"). But the rest of it is in that funk-bordering-on-rock vein that I'm a sucker for. Kinda similar to Sweet Apple, who also had an album on Columbia not long before Mother Night showed up.
"Send your roaches to Julie Nixon...don't hesitate, the ghetto's in a very bad state!"
glad you like it. It's true as Pickwick points out they had some great lyrics
"shooting rockets way up to the moon
you made such a mess down here we'll have too soon
and when you get up where, will you destroy what's there
like you did down here? fools are you"
