The record includes "
Sky Pilot", an anti-war song of the
Vietnam War era, and "
Monterey", the band's tribute to the 1967
Monterey Pop Festival. Reviewer Bruce Eder of
AllMusic describes the song "All Is One" as "unique in the history of pop music as a psychedelic piece, mixing bagpipes, sitar, oboes, horns, flutes, and a fairly idiotic lyric, all within the framework of a piece that picks up its tempo like the dance music from
Zorba the Greek while mimicking the
Spencer Davis Group's "
Gimme Some Lovin'.
The Twain Shall Meet peaked at No. 79 on the U.S.
Billboard Top LPs during a twenty nine-week stay on the chart. ==Track listing==
