Album Notes & Community Reviews
After years of writing successful hits for others, the Californian songwriter released this stunning, emotionally mature solo debut. Supported by intricate acoustic fingerpicking, subtle country-rock arrangements, and harmonies by David Crosby, the record is characterized by its profound lyrical introspection and melodic elegance. Featuring enduring staples like 'Doctor My Eyes', it essentially defined the template for the introspective 1970s Southern California singer-songwriter movement.
