A singer-songwriter masterpiece with a melancholic tinge at dusk
This is the album where Jackson Browne's poetic sensibility is at its most refined.
The title track delicately depicts the feelings of being at a crossroads in life, and the entire album maintains an introspective yet hopeful attitude. While based on an acoustic arrangement, the arrangements change with each song, making it an engaging album. This is a masterpiece that embodies the intellectual side of 1970s West Coast rock.
