Album Notes & Community Reviews

Constructed with a decidedly loose, intimate recording approach, the acclaimed songwriter's fourth studio album features an eclectic collection of brief, interwoven musical vignettes. Recorded primarily in his home studio, the famously relaxed production integrates light jazz and gentle folk-pop elements, featuring notable contributions from contemporary luminaries like Carole King and Carly Simon.
