1001 Albums Summary

This album was once one of my very favourite, over 20 years ago; so listening to it again is nostalgic for sure. First time I’ve listened to in its entirety in awhile. Still such an easy listen with more musical variety than I remembered. I remembered this album as acoustic guitars and harmonicas. Which is still very much true. But there’s more piano and more electric guitar than I remembered, and done to perfection in “Are You Ready For The Country” So glad I got to listen to this album today. Last two songs are still the best in my opinion.

Very long album. A lot of the songs sound the same by the end. But a few gems, and Ray’s voice always shines through.
