Album Notes & Community Reviews

Recording concurrently with his duties in the Faces, the raspy-voiced singer leaned deeply into an organic, acoustic-heavy blend of folk and roots-rock. Featuring stellar contributions from Ronnie Wood, the album's profoundly soulful interpretations of Bob Dylan and Elton John classics established his formidable interpretive prowess and solo superstar potential.
