One of my most eagerly anticipated albums when it came out. Could have been (should have been?) truly great, but I thought it was quite mediocre. Not a patch on JJ Cale's recent solo output IMHO. Not that good a recording either...

 

[nando]

i too founded not mediocre, but weird, from the cover i thought i was going to live an experience, well...

If you've not heard it, maybe try and seek out To Tulsa and Back - Cale's best of the last few years IMHO which can stand and be counted against Troubadour and Naturally

 

[nando]

i will do that thanks,
nando. also a good grooup that i like "FERTILE EARTH"

I bought this is the US last year expecting great things. Life is full of disappointments.
