This has some of my favorite John Guerin drumming. Especially Snow Queen, Midnight Wind, and Silent Song Through the Land. I don't think any of the Association guys actually played any instruments on this. Terry Kirkman and Larry Ramos might've overdubbed some woodwind here or there, but most likely not the other guys. Richard Thompson was a group member at this point in time and was a keyboardist not a guitar player. There is a guitar player by the same name but he's not the Association's Richard Thompson.
