BEFORE YOU READ ON, I WOULD LIKE TO MENTION THAT THE FRONT OF THE COVER IS RATHER SPECIAL, AS IT IS THE VERY FIRST ALBUM COVER DESIGNED BY ART GENIUS, ROGER DEAN FAMOUS FOR HIS ALBUM COVERS ART WORK ESPECIALLY WITH THE BAND YES . HE IS ACTUALLY CREDITED ON THE BACK OF THE COVER, THEN UNDER THE NAME, W. ROGER DEAN


HERE WE HAVE ONE OF THE FORGOTTEN ROCK CLASSICS OF THE 1960 s, AND IT COMES FROM, GUN WHO WERE A SHORT LIVED, HARD ROCK, PSYCH ROCK BAND FROM LONDON, WHO ORIGINALLY LASTED FROM ONLY 1967 TO 1970, AND ONLY MADE TWO ALBUMS, AND THE ONE LISTED BELOW IS THIS THEIR BRILLIANT FIRST AND DEBUT ALBUM, AND FEATURES, RACE WITH THE DEVIL .
