Note: From the Wikipedia page:
The album is considered by singer and songwriter Gary Wright to have ended the band's career. "Then we did a project that wasn't
our album. It was with this French electronic music composer named Pierre Henry. We just told the label, 'You know this is his album,
not our album. We'll play on it just like musicians.' And then when the album was finished, they said, 'Oh no no — it's great. We're
gonna release this as your next album.' We said, 'You can't do that. It doesn't have anything to do with the direction of Spooky Two
and it will ruin our career.' And that's exactly what happened."
