Chris Welch reviewed "Alchemy" in July 1969.

The day CHRIS WELCH ("Melody Maker") reviewed "Alchemy" on the issue of July 26th, 1969, other records was the wonderful Fairport Convention's "Unhalfbricking" (Island Records), Tyrannosaurus Rex's "King of the Rumbling Spires" (Regal Zonophone) and Nick Drake's masterpiece "Five Leaves Left" (Island Records). 

With his usual ironic register, that Glen loved too much, Welch writes about the mystical power of TEB's music - "simply strip to the waist on one's Earls Court pad, daub on cocoa, drop "Alchemy" on the turntable, and bingo! - one is immediatly in touch with the Spirit beings."
