The fragrant east coast breeze
Michael Franks moved to the East Coast and created a sophisticated worldview with his supple vocals and delicate playing on this album.
The album features his own vocals and acoustic guitar gently resonating against the sophisticated soundscape of the East Coast. Produced by Tommy LiPuma, with recording and mixing handled by Al Schmitt, the album reflects the transition of his musical career to the East Coast, and skillfully expresses this transition through its sound. At first listen, you're drawn into its beautiful worldview, and the deeper you listen, the more you appreciate it.
