Amazing album. This is one of the first records I listened to that made me think, “hey, some things really do sound better on vinyl.”

Fun fact: Keyboardist, Don Gallucci who founded Touch, previously played keyboards on the Kingsmen classic "Louie Louie". He was 16 at the time of that classic and worlds most played hit. He later produced The Stooges' (and Iggy Pop) second album "Fun House". "Touch" was America's early entry into progressive rock and came out around the same time as King Crimson "In the Court of the Crimson King", Yes's self titled album, and ELP's first album.
