The Captain Sky album cover reminded me of the cover of the 1972 album "Who Will Save The World?" by The Groundhogs. Here is a link to the Groundhog album, with artwork on its cover by D.C. Comics illustrator Neal Adams:

(I don't have the Groundhogs LP, but I still have the pre-recorded cassette, which has the same cover.)

My taste in music remains in loud arena rock and metal but every once in a while I'll drag out my old funk music albums, i.e. Ohio Players, Cool & The Gang, Commodores, and let loose. As with any genre, some was pretty good and some wasn't worth the vinyl it was pressed upon.

I hadn't heard of The Captain but this song shows a good degree of polish and poise.
