Released by UK CBS/USA Columbia Records in 1977, this gem of an album seems to have been missed by the multitudes. It's lack of commercial success meant that the album was not released as a CD (but can now be found on you tube). It has been forgotten - except by me.
I loved this album in the late 70's and it soundtracked my first significant relationship ~ where the album (on tape) would be on constant play as I drove the 45 minute each way journey between my place & her place on most days of the week.
Despite that relationship not surviving, the album still resonates within me and it is an album that, almost 50 years later, I return to year after year.
