If Only For A Moment was the second and final album from the British pop group Blossom Toes. This one is harder rocking than its more psychedelic predecessor.
“This is a good psychedelic hard rock album; progressive song structures, excellent twin guitar interplay, and unpredictability make this album a true classic. Love Bomb is possibly my favourite tune.”
“After their delightful debut Blossom Toes changed their naive-side and became a remarkable underground act with tighter arrangements. The avant-garde experimentalism is still intact and the lyrics reflect the social buried-dream of the sixties.”
“Blossom Toes have some more subtle, jazzier material here, and also work with art rock time changes that were moving through the underground of the late 1960s English rock scene.”
“A total shift in sound for their second album, moving from psych/baroque pop on their debut to heavy, fuzzy rock on their last effort. This is quite solid and very Cream-esque. It's definitely weird to hear how much they transformed between albums, but this is certainly an admirable effort.”
“Blossom Toes second album starts out as if it were going to continue from where their first left off, but the heavy rock riff that jumps in heralds the new, mature sound of a band that has moved away from flower power into something quite different.”
“Definitely sounds like a different band. That said, I like both albums equally and think they are both great. Depends on my mood but this one has a drive that's not found anywhere on the earlier release. Great guitar interplay.”
“I love the first Blossom Toes album so much that this release came as a bit of a shock. It's so different; it's hard to believe that this is the same band. Whereas their debut album was a masterpiece of psychedelic pop, this album is prog-rock, almost like heavy metal in places.”
