      @@groverbaker6404 I know what you mean - Rare Bird did get some minimal recognition in the 70s with hits like "Sympathy" and "Peace of Mind", but not much wide radio airplay beyond that. But I was fortunate to have a couple of FM radio stations that played a wider array of their songs, like "Beautiful Scarlet" and "Epic Forest".

      If mindless electronic keyboard noodling and trite lyrics is "criminally underrated" than yes. Not to be confused with the band "Yes". If you took Yes and removed the talent you would have something birdbrained like Rare Bird.

    Absolute Rarität,,Rare Bird,,...ist nicht nur ,,Sympathie,,2Alben im Stil
    Zw.Underground...Klassik und Prog Rock...geniale Musiker,außergewöhnliche Musik und Sounds...etwas Psychedelic...
    Auch heute noch hörenswert...leider gibt es heutzutage keine so kreative Bands.Das würde die Live Szene bereichern.

Van der Graaf Generator's H to He Who Am The Only One did get released on ABC/Dunhill (and The Least We Can Do is Wave to Each Other was on ABC/Probe). I own all these American pressings of the Rare Bird and VdGG albums so I should know. I also own both Rare Bird LPs as UK originals on the pink scroll Charisma label, both with different covers.

      These are fair points but don't forget that this album was recorded only in 1970 when Prog was still in its early stages, just like with any other medium the pioneering days are very much trial and error and the drummer Mark Ashton would go on to become a really great painter, his artwork ironically enough would be perfect for the cover of a Yes album. It may be that music didn't quite work out for him, but had he not tried it, he would most likely not have developed his skills into painting.
