I have loved this duo since the 70's when I got to see them perform many times at My Father's Place in the City of Old Rosyln. I find this to be their most enjoyable release. I love the stripped down arrangements and interplay. I have downloaded everything they have on this site. One of the chief perplexes of my musical enjoyment is why they didn't become as popular or more popular than Simon & Garfunkel, they are easily as good as songwriters and more importantly- singers.
A compelling collection of tasty harmonies, innovative lyrics and unpretentious arrangement all combine to make this an exceptional addition to your music library. Their debut album from '72 is excellent as well--the only reason I signed up with eMusic was to add their original disk to my collection. This album might even be better. It has less orchestration and fewer production values added to distract from the real talent. These fellows are exceptional musicians and singers. If you like the best of America, James Taylor and the top notch folk-rock, you'll love both the duo and the album. Stranded on a desert island with only a handful of CD's...this is one I'd want. On a site filled with reconstituted hash, this is filled with prime cuts.
