Do You Like It Here Now, Are You Settling In? is the fourth studio album by the Welsh psychedelic/progressive rock band Man and was released in November 1971. The album was recorded in August at Charles and Kingsley Ward's Rockfield Studios near Monmouth in Southeastern Wales. Sessions took place soon after the renowned 'All Good Clean Fun' tour of Switzerland, although a brief break in the hectic German tour schedule during the late spring had resulted in two tracks being written at a studio in Swansea, Wales. Critical reaction to the new album was positive, with encouraging suggestions of a band on the verge of breaking into the big time. The album title is apparently a Swansea saying, usually directed at pub landlords of exceptionally long standing. [1]
