"In October 1968, before any Poco or Eagles or even Flying Burrito Brothers albums, and just a mere month after the monumental release of The Byrds' Sweetheart of the Rodeo, Dillard & Clark released this landmark album.

"I found this album to be one that was straight out the blocks with a really strong start and then seemed to maybe lose its momentum a lil towards the end... still a very pleasant listen overall however, containing some real gems in the form of 'Quicksand', 'This Enchanted', 'Lights On' and 'The R..."

"People write him off as pleasant yuppie music, good for dinner parties. There's more depth than that here. His lyrics are often insightful, and there's nothing wrong with being pleasant." Reply

"Having listened to this album a number of times, I finally get it. Disturbing, angry, quizzical, otherworldly, fascinating, funny, and very very beautiful. And Robert's voice floating over it all, haunting, wavering and honest. It's every bit as good as "Rock Bottom" if not better." Reply

"Consistent third (and last) album; solid 8.5/10 until the plodder of Big Snake which may have got away with it if it was 90 seconds shorter. Doesn't realy pick up after that with Hey Rusty following, again not the strongest, and finishing with These Days which is a nice closer but no real substan..." [+] Reply

"Yeah...no. I will admit that there are a few tracks I do like off this album. The intro for Jack Gell was a nice interlude intro. Also love the hell out of Susan Axelrod. Probably the best track that plays to the strengths of the qualities this album has. Also thought Murray De Pillars was also g..." [+] Reply
