Produced by brothers Eric and Steven Nathanson, 1970's "Omnibus" served as a showcase for Wegrzyn. In addition to serving as lead vocalist, he was responsible for writing or co-writing all 12 numbers. Whether you were impressed depended on how you felt about the band's derivative sound. Propelled by Wegrzyn's achy voice and organ and horn-propelled material, the band's Doors-meets-Blood, Sweat and Tears catalog struck us as an acquired taste. While occasionally mildly entertaining ("Shake It Off" and the fuzz-guitar powered "Understand"), the majority of the set was simply rather bland. As far as we can tell, the album failed to provide credits for the band members.
