It could be as Van's, American 'album called, because there was, Into The Music' and added the horns arranged by Pee Wee Ellis - oh yeah, and Ry Cooder has a Gastauftrtitt on the slide guitar in Full Force Gale. Musically found quite influences from New Orleans R & B and Soul Philly how, all, can simultaneously hear when You Make Me Feel So Free fairly well up at Full Force Gale, Bright Side Of The Road before. Nevertheless, the Caledonian soul is omnipresent - alone already by the frequently occurring Fidel.

I also do not want to decide whether that's his best album, but it is definitely one of his five best and shows a gifted musicians before the Lord on his creative peak me.
