I really like that song too (Kiss the Rainbow), it is definitely the best on
the cd, just ahead of Can Anybody Help Me, both epic songs for heep!  Well
maybe not July Morning but really good!  The last song to grow on me is The
Law, and now I catch myself singing "you got to take, the law, into your own
hands"

The other song I did not like at first was Rock the Foundation, but once you
get past the "baby" in the lyrics, it is a decent rocker.

As far as screaming "Yeah!!!!", the song that fits that category is Jessie.
I just love the imagery of the lyrics and the killer bass line that kicks in
twice in the song.

Best Vocals are on Looking at You and One Minute.

I have not picked a guitar solo yet as favorite but working on it.  I still
don't hear the double bass drum issue that some mentioned.

On a side note, I loaned the cd I burned of the Amazon auto rip to my boss
at my new job.   He has yet to return it, and I even caught him at the
office softly singing "one Minute" I did also loan him an early heep
compilation but he didn't like it.  That is sort of funny and puzzling to us
long time heep fans.  However, he heard the new first and it is still good
enough to reel in a new fish, I mean fan.
