The guitars are grungy as hell and the production style is appealingly loud. Two of the highlights are covers, Wilkinsons Tricycle???s ???What Of I??? and a short version of Spooky Tooth???s ???Evil Woman,??? but the originals are strong too. A good one. Highly recommended to fans of the first two Blue Cheer albums.

font class="post"1b,121b,121I usually skipped over most of Side 2, and even I had to notice what an interesting end-closer "Sun Arise" was. It's even more odd coming after "Black Juju" (on the tail end of Side One)!b,121b,121/font1

font class="post"1b,121b,121Don't get me wrong, I like Alice Cooper, but when he gets on that "conceptual" jag, he loses me. That's what messed up School's Out for me, the fact that there's this huge West Side Story multi-song production number running through the middle of it...
