Ghosts is the 7th studio album by English band Strawbs. Ghosts" (Dave Cousins) – 8:31. Lemon Pie" (Cousins) – 4:03. Where Do You Go (When You Need a Hole to Crawl In)" (Cousins) – 3:02. The Life Auction" – 6:52. Impressions of Southall from the Train" (Cousins, John Hawken). The Auction" (Cousins, Dave Lambert). Don't Try to Change Me" (Lambert) – 4:28.

Probably the most under-rated Strawbs album, "Ghosts" was certainly not nearly as successful as it should have been commercially. The numerous line up changes which seemed to be a feature of just about every album appeared to give the band fresh impetus each time, thus "Ghosts" had a great diversity of music, from almost fragile beauty, to very powerful pomposity. Ghosts" is a musically rich and inspired album with some nice diverse moods and themes. My favourite STRAWBS tune of all time (next to "Autumn" from "Hero and Heroine") is "The Life Auction" with its clear GENESIS inspired progressive vibes and mellotron led accompaniment.

I have a copy of this record where the matrix-numbers are a bit confusing.. Side1: sp-4749-P1Side2: sp-4750-p1Both sides also have a second number that has been scratched out :sp4511-p1sp4512-p1 This number corresponds to A&M release Nazareth - Hair of the dog which was released the same year.Any comments?
