A concept album based on the memories he shared with his long-time partner up until his debut.
The ninth album released in 1975. It contains 10 songs, including "Someone Saved My Life Tonight," which was later re-released as a single.
This is the first album to debut at number one on the Billboard album chart. The re-cut song "Someone Saved My Life Tonight" is about the memory of breaking off an engagement, and the Japanese title has a different meaning.
