Its a pretty solid album, I've heard most of these songs long before I actually picked it up, but I've heard Rollins do things with a little more fire than this album, although I'm not really a Rollins expert.

Probably my fave cuts would be "Strode Rode" and "Blue 7", I'll go with "Strode" as the one.
I don't know if I'm ready to review this one yet, it would be better for a true Rollins fan. If Matt would show his sorry butt around here again, he could probably do the best review of this one, or maybe Miles Beyond or darkprince, but I haven't seen those guys lately either.

Haven't listen this album for quite a long time, to be honest don't remember separate songs, but album as whole is absolutely great, probably one  of best genre album I ever heard

^ No rush. Smile The reason why I brought up that album is because it is in the list of top 25 but it has only 18 miserable and lonely ratings and no reviews. After 18 ratings it received a relatively high rating, which probably says something.
