This sounds exactly like the sort of 70s psychedelic prog rock album that you would expect to hear from someone called “Randy California” (stop sniggering at the back!). It’s a varied mix of different styles and it feels like it influenced other bands - the track Space Child wouldn’t sound out of place on The Lamb Lies Down on Broadway by Genesis which came out four years after this.
It’s also instructive to compare this with the 1990’s album Lazer Guided Melodies from Spiritualized that came up on my list yesterday - this is very much the sort of space rock that the latter album was trying (and failing) to emulate. Probably not the sort of thing I’d listen to regularly but a solid album nonetheless.
