Early Machine Head fans didn't take kindly to this album but it did introduce a whole new group of people to the band so we use this as a launching pad to talk about the vested interests that come into play when your band becomes a business. Whilst there is some background on how that Message in a Bottle cover made it to the album, the inclusion of that song makes it a hard album to defend but ultimately Machine Head have stood the test of time and their fans are still buying tickets to see them live.
