Yep it is great. The CD reissue (on Second Battle)with bonus tracks is worth getting just for the sound quality alone compared to previous boots.
The bonus tracks are all Lo-fi jams & very cool and unformed compared to the album. There is a bonus track recorded by them in the mid 90s which has them trying to get to grips with electronica, which would be OK if it wasn't for a very annoying repetive speech sample.

aha a mad week of listening for a change
been listening a lot to Donovan and realise that its far far better than ive ever imagined - cool stuff indeed
also got me head inside Love - not yer usual stuff but the later stuff and if you delve there are some gems to be had especially when the guitars cut loose

Well, I might piss people off by mentioning two extremely hard to find albums that have long been out of print as far as I know. It's the first two albums by a group called Clang, who were originally from my town Rochester New York but later moved to Florida and I think they might have broke up. Leader and main songwriter Paul Reller used to be a guitar teacher at House of Guitars (which Armand Schaubroek owns as I mentioned before) and had also studied at the Eastman School of Music.
Anyways, their first two albums were Lovey Dovey and Pol Pot Pie. (The last album was called Curse of Clang, which I have but haven't listened to lately.) Reller often had an annoying whiney voice, which made it easy to overlook the bitter, misanthropic lyrics in the vein of Elvis Costello.
The music was usually smoother than Costello's early stuff, but some abrupt noisy passages would throw the listener off occasionally.
The last thing I heard, Reller produced a Tiny Tim album before his death. Good luck finding those albums, at any rate...
