Title: underrated
Review: Emitt Rhodes is accused of being a Paul McCartney sound alike. While Emitt "copied" Paul's style, he deserves a break. Hedid this sound with just as much enthusiasm as its creator if not more. It's best to get the LP for this. There are some nice photos on the sleeve.The most McCartney like song is Birthday Lady. But "Love will Stone you" separates him from the sound somewhat, a beautiful haunting song.While his first self titled album is better reviewed, in my opinion this is the strongest of the two. This is more polished. Emitt never achieved the success he deserved. Perhaps it's best Emitt didn't have major success. He probably remained more down to earth as a result. On his first album you can see "Recorded at Home" on the end of the record and I can't lie I got a warm fuzzy feeling from that.
