Album Review

CAPTAIN SAD AND HIS SHIP OF FOOLS —Cowsills—MGM SE 4554 The Cowsill family made a triumphant return to the Top 10 with “Indian Lake,” on the charts for a long time, and should find equal success with this set. Heavy overtones of Beatle and Beach Boy harmonies are present on this set, which could give it added appeal to the college crowd. Outstanding cuts are “Ask The Children,” “Who Can Teach A Songbird How To Sing,” “Newspaper Blanket,” and the title tune. Teens will want to know about this album.
