It is a classic and you can hear his classic voice and very nice guitar playing.

Thanks for the recommendation, Thaus. I downloaded this album and have been listening to it off-and-on over the past 2 days. While I can't claim to have given it 100% of my attention, I will say, from my perspective, it's a really good introduction to his music. He really is/was (don't want to reopen
this debate) a good guitar player.
I still don't care that much for his voice, but meh. Lately I've been focused more on songwriting than vocals/performance. And this album makes it
very clear that the guy is
one helluva songwriter. I anticipate listening to this album a lot over the next few weeks and months.
Thanks again! Nothing like "discovering" a guy who has 30+ years of records strung behind him ...
