I quite liked the band, and to my ears the album still sounds pretty good all these years later. As for the LA concept, I always thought it was a cringeworthy embarassment. I first recall Caroline plugging LA in early 1974 and it already sounded like dated hippy rubbish. Flower power and the love and peace thing was part of the late 1960s and was well past it's sell by date. A lot of kids at school were regular Caroline listeners in those days, but I remember more than one of them saying '...I wish they'd ditch that hippy love and peace crap'. It was bad enough in the seventies, but by the eighties it really should have been conigned to history.
