On 8/18/96, Clark Ray pontificated about RE: Spirit to Doug Farrow:

My favorite Spirit is the self-titled first album - highly recommended.
Darker and more atmospheric. I love Randy California's liquid guitar lines in
it. Got to see Spirit (along with Strawberry Alarm Clock, Lee Michaels and
several others) at one of the spring training ballparks in Phoenix circa
1970. Very good live although the quiter stuff didn't come across well in
that setting.
