From Billboard - January 27, 1968: Although there is some question about the current popularity of flower youth, a quality album like this always is welcome. In there second album, the Love Generation drives with "You" and hits a gentler beat with "Epitaph" (A World Without Love)." Included in the 10 other selections are new dimensions for such recent songs as "Workin' My Way Back To You" and "Stop! In The Name Of Love."

  1. Lol, Maman? Mama--what a sign of the times and really pretty funny altho meant as a 'serious' song about the war in Vietnam. I wasn't aware of this band, but ran into them while looking up some stuff on Discogs.
