Man's Second Album was released in 1969, TheSame year as their debut. In an effort To emphasize Theof theirMUSIC , PyeRecords moved ManTo their new dawn label. Ironically, The album title is AofThe physicalMake Upof onlp record.

Relying More And More OnThe opening "Prelude/The storm" is an ambitious scene setter with clear delusionsof grandeur. Things continue To build towards ATo an altogether more relaxing, almost ambient phase. As we move into "It is as it must be" (originally To be titled "Shit OnThe world" tillThe record company took fright), we beginTo uncover what would becomeThe essenceofThe band . Here we have A HEAVYTheFirst vocalsofThe album. Apart From that brief vocal excursion, The track is primarily an elongated jam featuring lead guitar and harmonica.

In another example of wonderful incompetence, TheToThe titleofThe thirdtrack. It was therefore changed From "Spunk rock" ToBox " (A record company employee misunderstoodThe instructions and changedThe wrong word!), althoughThe former title has prevailed overTime . In view of TheTheLive arena,The version here maySoundA little tame It remains though One of Man's signature numbers.

"My name is Jesus Smith" is The most commercial track OnThe album, revertingToThe bystanders (From whom Man evolved) light pop rock style with pleasant harmonies. Midway through, The song bizarrely transforms into A hoe-down style country piece.

"Parchment and candles" was reputedly performed On ATo producer/songwriter Tony Hatch, who took exceptionToTheband using itWithoutHIS permission and threw an Elton John style tantrum. The piece itself is A brief reflective instrumental, quite unlike what we have come ToFrom Man. The album closes with A BUDGIERED otherWHITE striped tent". Not A particularly memorable track by any means, but fine all TheSame .

In all, an album which sees Man starting To find ASTILL experimenting withA few disparate styles. An enjoyable excursion. (Easy Living/progarchives.com)
