Ecology  by Rare Earth

In June 1970, the American band Rare Earth released their third album through Rare Earth Records - which was named after the band. The album was titled Ecology.

Ecology is an album that musically balances between blues rock and funk rock, while many progressive elements are embedded within it. The album consists of seven compositions. Two of these are covers, which are the group's version of how (I Know) I'm Losing You should sound (originally performed by the Temptations), and they also presented their own version of Eleanor Rigby by the Beatles. The rest are mainly compositions by Tom Baird, who also took on the role of producer on the album along with Norman Whitfield.

Ecology reached No. 15 on the Billboard chart, and its sales eventually earned it a gold certification in the U.S. (500,000 copies).
