Obscure horn rock presumably from the Los Angeles area. 'Save Your Breath' is a kick ass ripper with superb analog synthesizer and electric guitar. 'Coming of the Rain' is from the pop side of the genre, yet no less satisfying, and contains a great melody with strong instrumentation. 1975 is way late for this kind of music, and thus Straight didn't make much of a name for themselves, though they did get picked up by ATCO for one more single. If you're a horn rock fan like me, you'll want to get this.
Ownership: SP: 1975 Encore. I found two copies in one week (one in Rapid City, South Dakota, one in Denver).
