As good as THE SMOKER YOU DRINK... is, this is Joe's most mature, consistent album. Every song is a winner, if not attaining rock classic status like "Rocky Mountain Way" and "Meadows" from TSYD... (although "Turn To Stone" comes pretty darn close).

The production is excellent, arrangements just perfect for each song.

I first heard this when it came out in the 70s. I was (and still am) a huge Yes fan; but back then I was an even bigger Art-Rock snob (fortunately, I grew out of THAT!). If it wasn't Yes, Genesis, Gentle Giant, Jethro Tull, then it was crap.

My brother brought this home and put it on the stereo. After a couple listens, I found myself putting it on! My bro and I had a garage band, and we played a couple tracks from this (as well as some Marshall Tucker...).

I eventually bought the LP myself....

"Song For Emma" always makes me cry. Thanks for sharing the story about Emma being Joe's daughter - I didn't know that. It'll probably make me cry even more the next time I hear it!

This is a must-have disc. You will not regret it.

Pink and her music have mature so much in the last 3 years, she has opened the doors to a larger listening audience, even me a 50+ listener. Keep up the great work and keep telling your mind
