Short review in a round-up column of new records (page 57; alongside People's Choice, Orleans and Miguel Ángel, among others). John St. Field's "Control" is described as an album of singer-songwriter songs ("canciones de autor") that are carefully arranged, and praised as a record of rare charm. The tone is clearly positive. At the end comes the reference Movieplay S-32.738, exactly the catalogue number of the original Spanish pressing. A sentence about folk roots convincingly reshaped into a rock aesthetic appears on the same page; whether it still belongs to this review cannot be decided with certainty from the snippets.
Summary in our own words; for the exact wording see the original.
