This was a thoroughly-underrated album when released as the follow-up to ‘Tea for the Tillerman’, which many consider to have been his best album. However, this more gentle album not only produced more hit singles than its predecessor, but has also lasted the test of time better, as the tracks have a much greater familiarity than the listener realises.
