Already a great album in my mind. It's a very warm, inviting record in a way; there's so much life in the music - from the moving guitar solos that genuinely add to the emotion of the songs, to the beautiful melodic basslines. The backing vocals that weave in and out add a layered warmth to the mood of it and Gene Clark has such a captivating voice. His lyrics seem very evocative, occasionally impressionistic maybe (?), but seem to have real depth and vulnerability to them. Lots of natural imagery and, on one listen, seem very forthright about the 'troughs' of life, especially when pleasure is sought to excess, whilst capturing the beauty too. Never nihilistic. I just want to explore deeper.

Not really for me. Nice groove, impressive restraint and I really like the lead guitar bits. But it just doesn't excite me.

Enjoyed this. Effortless swing, the interplay between the harmonica, piano and bass is a joy. Muddy Waters ties it all together with his deep, rich voice. Will definitely be listening to this again.

Such a powerful voice. Fun songs.
