Recording and music edit

The album was recorded at the newly opened Electric Lady Studios in New York with the renowned Eddie Kramer and his team at the engineers console. It follows the six-originals, two-covers pattern of their debut album Cactus. "Long Tall Sally", in a slower tempo than the original, opens the album with a rousing start. The album then runs through a string of original compositions, with the addition of Chuck Willis' 1954 song "Feel So Bad" in the middle. Also included is the short instrumental "Song for Aries", which showcases McCarty's underrated lead guitar.[1] The album was released in February 1971, just seven months after their first album.
