Chapter Three was more progressive and not commercially successful at the time. Slightly ahead of the times. Volume Two was originally released in 1970. The opener, "Lady Ace" is a haunting melody with and intricate rhythms. Standout tracks, "Poor Sad Sue" and the epic "Happy Being Me" which clocks in at over ten minutes and takes the listener on a journey through various moods and textures. The album closes with the haunting ballad "Virginia" leaving the listener feeling contemplative and fulfilled. "Volume Two" is a must-listen for fans of jazz-rock and anyone looking for a cerebral musical experience.
