A terrible album in an otherwise great year for music. Outside of Smoke on the Water, not much to listen to on this one. Space Truckin' is perhaps the next best song on the LP. Although A Blind Man Cries had potential, the lyrics were ridiculous, pandering to the lowest level for an attempt at a blues song. By today's standards, they're not very good musicians. The LP mainly consists of overly repetitive guitar chords, weak guitar solos, rough drum beats, and rough bass lines. This is not what I would consider a classic album.
