Album Review
From its brown-toned cover to its contents, Loggins & Messina's fourth studio album is a sober, low-key, reflective affair. The band's music, with its single flute, violin, and horn lines, directed by Messina's intricate guitar and mandolin playing, serves a series of mid-tempo tunes expressing a lot of quiet dissatisfaction signalled by titles like "Be Free," "Changes," and "Move On." As usual in a Jim Messina production, all of this is elegantly, tastefully accomplished, but one could hardly come away from the record feeling that all was well in the L&M camp.
Customer Reviews
Still one of my faves...
Although this album didn't produce any hit records and probably wasn't one of their most commercially sucessfull efforts, it is still my favorite L&M album. The band was well seasoned by this point, and even though there was a lot of fighting going on, they were playing very tightly as a group. Loggins wasn't pushing his vocals as hard as he would later (think "I'm Alright"), and Messina was at the top of his game as a guitarist and as a producer. Listen to the lush arrangements on "Brighter Days", the tempo change on "Time to Space", and the textures on "Be Free" and you will see what I mean...
My Favorite L & M Album
Although I have favorite tunes on their other albums, this, as a whole, is the one I like best. Very easy to listen to, start to finish. Exquisite production by Messina. There's a warmth and depth to the sound I don't hear on any of the other L&M sides. Good stuff.
Go for it
This CD brings back sooo many memories. They were reaching the end but saved some of their best for last. Not a commercial hit but take time to REALLY listen & you too might think this is Loggins & Messina's best.
