Exclusive discount for Prime members. Sample this album Artist (Sample). This was the first album I bought with my own money 30 years ago. The playing is tight, the songs are infectious, and leaves me feeling happy when the album is done. I just looked over the song titles to see if I could recommend a song or two as the best track and it was too hard to choose. High'N Dry and Back to the Land are a little country folksy, but feel heartfelt and sincere. Jim Dandy, Mad Man, both display some serious chops. There is no filler on this album. I've owned most of their albums in the past and this one is the must have from their catalog.
