"This was Gypsy's first album and it is excellent. This album is a favorite among the group's fans. It is noteworthy that this was a double LP set since it was rare for a group's debut album to be a double set in the early seventies. The music contained on this album is an excellent representation of the Gypsy sound. The sound is heavy on guitars and keyboards with tight vocal harmonies. The songs "Gypsy Queen (Parts 1 and 2)", "Dead and Gone", and "Tomorrow is the Last to Be Heard" received the most radio airplay.

When purchasing this CD, be sure to look for the Bedrock Records logo, since this is the only version which contains the bonus track of "The Innocence"." Review provided by the official Gypsy site. http://members.tripod.com/~gypsy-queen/indexframe.html

Ed's Note: Enrico Rosenbaum was the lead guitarist/vocalist, and he shared songwriting duties with James (The Owl) Walsh, Gypsy's keyboard player. Their sound was somewhere between Santana and The Walker Brothers. A very unusual combination of styles that actually worked. My favourite tracks off Gypsy are 'Gypsy Queen' (no relation to the Santana track), 'Late December', 'The Third Eye', and 'The Vision'. Enrico died just a few years after this album was released in 1970.
