      I discovered this album through the Polydor Canada compilation Rock, Soul, Blues Explosion, which opened my ears to a lot of new music. Probably would have found a lot of it from other channels, but I don't think I would have come across Chapter 3 elsewhere. There is something dated and maybe a bit corny about the doomy basement jazz-rock presented here, but hot damn if it doesn't create a mood. And that's what this album mainly is- a mood which feels very Californian but quite surprising for 1969 and for a band coming from England and for a band like Manfred Mann that was mainly recording pop hits before and pop-rock hits after as "Earth Band". This album is surely an "experimental" one for them, and by far the most interesting. And there is some good songwriting here too, from Travelling Lady, Sometimes, and Mister You're A Better Man Than I. An overlooked oddity that really deserves further attention.
