To me, this was The Strawbs break-out album. It combines poetry with a wonderful variety of captivating melodies, harmonies, and musicianship. It helped set the stage for even better Strawbs music which was to come in the next several albums. A must-have for any Strawbs fan!

Probably one of the more overlooked works of The Strawbs' cannon, Grave New World leads off with Benedictus, which gives thanks for things big and small. New World has a Moody Blues flavor a la 'Tuesday Afternoon'. My favorite of the lot is Heavy Disguise, which has such a timeless, melodic quality. Highly recommended!
Have had this on vinyl for many years but with no equipment to play vinyl anymore! Just as good as I remembered. One item on a long list of vinyl to CD replacements, well worth it.
Great album

I have always like the straws. The cd packaging is great with extra tracks. The sound is by far the best I've heard
