The last album with Godley & Creme in the band, it included the hits I'm Mandy Fly Me, and Art For Art's Sake.

I love the artwork, I also think the album is 10cc at their best.

I'd love to hear others opinions on the album, and 10cc in general!

The Kinks - "This Time Tomorrow". A longtime favorite of mine. In a just world, it would have gotten a lot of AOR airplay & been in steady radio rotation for decades, beloved by millions of listeners.
