Review title: Townes's best album -- a true work of genius.
Product review: This album really stands our among TvZ's oeuvre. Too often his work is overproduced and therefore loses some of Townes's raw quality that very effectively conveys the essence of "American music" -- ie, blues, country, and rock and roll. He is also at the height of his artistic powers here, and his hard living life style had not yet taken its toll on his voice. His guitar playing is clearly heard on this album, and although his playing is not on the same level as a Clapton or Kottke, his arrangements are beautiful and are suffused with licks from the country blues that inspired his playing.
