Brilliant album from the seventies

Backless (Audio CD)

Customer Review

I originally bought this album on vinyl soon after its original release and I've always liked it. I was first Attracted to the album by Eric's cover of Tulsa Time (noticeably different from the Equally brilliant original by Don Williams) but the whole album is brilliant. It is not quite my favorite among Eric's albums (That would be 461 Ocean Boulevard) but it comes close.

Supported by Dick Sims (keyboards), Marcy Levy (backing vocals), Terry George (guitar), Carl Radle (bass guitar and backing vocals), Jamie Oldaker (drums, percussion and backing vocals), Eric sings and plays guitar on ten songs , Four of Which (Watch out for Lucy, Roll it, Tell Me That You Love Me, Golden Ring) he wrote or co-wrote. Bob Dylan co-wrote two of the others (Walk out in the rain, If I do not be there by morning) while JJ Cale wrote I'll make love to you anytime. Perhaps the best of the lot is Promises (written by Richard Feldman and Roger Linn) while the traditional Early in the morning is another excellent song.

Overall, this is a fairly mellow album Although the pace picks up here and there. Other s may tell you That this is not one of Eric's most important album but it remains one of my favorites.
