At 28mins 38 secs, I've listened to this album four times this morning. Aside from all the memories and emotions this album brings up, I'm utterly blown away at how smashing this album is, rather still is!!

It's probably been 15 years since I've last listened to this album! I'm up dancing to "Speak My Language" the way I did at my 7th grade sock hop!

My favorites on this ablum are:
The Upstairs Room
The Dream
Speak My Language
Just One Kiss
Lament

Any other orgers fans of this album? What are your favorite tracks?

in the uk those tracks were initially singles and b sides that ,... became an album ,..i love these songs , as a collection,....SUPERB !!

This hopefully will be the next re-issue.

I kinda doubt it will be, but I'd like it just for completist's sake.

He sure was cute around that time.

Not much of a point reissuing that one since most of it appears on Join The Dots...

It'd be nice just for the packaging and extras though.

i love every track, but favorites are just one kiss and lament.

i'm sayin'.

i was all prepped to hunt down a copy of this on CD until i realized i have all the songs already (unless the mixes are different?). i might still try to find it on vinyl - i really like the cover art, not to mention it makes me feel really nostalgic for high school, when all my friends had this hanging around in their milk crates.

Yeah, you've got it all and then some with the stuff from "Join the Dots" and "Greatest Hits".
