[Heeplist] No trouble with Trouble

[Bob Winward]

I was talking about "my" use of puns and word play on the word Trouble.  I
was wondering aloud if others get the jokes I was making as there was no
feedback about it. Sadly, maybe it has reached the point on the list where I
am the only who thinks my jokes are funny.

Proud Words is a masterpiece!  However it is recorded during Ken's time with
Heep.   My statement is meant to be taken as Trouble being Ken's best since
leaving Heep.

Lastly, I do not have to defend my review, despite what others say about the
recording, I am going to enjoy it.

I would be interested if anyone on the list is interested in a song by song
in-depth review?  If so, I have began notes, just in case.  For example, I
too heard a similarity between an opening Hammond riff and the one that
opens Rainbow Demon.
