Heroes is certainly the dark horse of the1971-1974 era. The band was pretty burned out by then -- from constantly changing line-ups and dewinderling finanances. Still, they managed to irk out a decent album.

I actually like the cover, sans Mick's rib cage. It looks like a style precurser to the Fleetwood Mac/Rumours albums.

"Prove Your Love" is one of my favorites -- a great overlooked song from Christine. I recall an interview many years ago, when Christine was asked if she had any songs she wished she could re-record. She mentioned "Prove Your Love." She specifically noted that she could have sung it better and it wasn't recorded properly.
