8. Shades of A Bule Orphanage (1972)

I find these all to be fairly close, which speaks to the consistency of the band. "Fighting" will always be my fav though. Much like the band UFO, I haven't given too much of a listen to their first two records. Due to this poll, it had me looking for what I hoped was an inexpensive used/new deluxe version of "Shade of A Blue Orphanage", which I was able to find. I look forward to giving this some quality listens when it arrives.

I did receive "Shades of A Blue Orphanage" a few days ago. The album is what I thought it was, a hungry band trying to find their sound. The album is fine, but not one I will revisit very often. The only reason I will get their debut, is to be a completist with the band's discography.
