Another one of those back to the roots things. Come on Neil, we know where your roots are. Stop trying to trick us.
They are right here on this album. Perfect mix of country/rock/folk with Neils ninth solo album. Crazy Horse on a
couple of tracks (the band, not the MD member). The very versatile Nicolette Larson with very nice backing vocals
throughout. Only thing better could have been Emmylou. Interesting to read Human Highway was originally written as a
CSNY number, which never came to be. The only non-Neil written track here is Ian Tysons Four Strong Winds. I've
heard many versions of this, but this one has to be near the top, with Bobby Bare. Easier to list the tracks I don't
love on this album, which are Look Out For My Love, Peace Of Mind, and Motorcycle Mama (my worst track). Best track
Is Field Of Opportunity. Tough choice for best, till I get to this. Then it just kicks ass. The album was a return
to the top 10 for Neil, his first since Harvest. This and that are among his best for me. Now I gotta see what
CRAZY-HORSE said (the MD member, not the band).

I LOVE THIS ALBUM

Worst Track - Motorcycle Mama

Best Track - Field Of Opportunity

I've been wrong before
And I'll be there again
I don't have
any answers my friend
Just this pile of old questions
My memory left me here
In the field of opportunity
It's plowin' time again.

I'm going' back to my house
But I'm not goin' now
It's too early
to be leaving here, somehow
Let me bore you with this story
"How my lover let me down"
While I borrow seeds of sadness
From the ground.

In the field of opportunity
It's plowin' time again.
There ain't no way of telling
Where these seeds
will rise or when
I'll just wait
around 'til springtime
And then, I'll find a friend
In the field of opportunity
It's plowin' time again.

When I'm all done cultivatin'
I'll be rockin' on the porch
Tryin' to picture
you and where you are
And there'll be no hesitatin'
When Cupid lights the torch
With those headlights
comin' down the hill
Between the stars.

In the field of opportunity
It's plowin' time again.
There ain't no way of telling
Where these seeds
will rise or when
I'll just wait
around 'til springtime
And then, I'll find a friend
In the field of opportunity
It's plowin' time again.

Vangelis Reprise - stunning piece of work if you like music that lends itself to being considered as movie sountracks. Powerful album without being over the top. And some magical interludes as well.

Did her Best Of a few weeks ago which came out quite high. This debut does as well on its own. Only two of these
tracks were included on that Best Of set. It took three singles off of here before Pat found her first minor hit
with Heartbreaker. Not one of my six love tracks, but it passes. That one reached #23 and the album went to #12. Pat
reminded me of a Debbie Harry or Chrissie Hynde, but a bit more agressive. An excellent live performer as well.
Three covers that I was aware of on here, Mellancamp's I Need A Lover, Alan Parsons Don't Let It Show, and Smokie's
If You Think You Know How To Love Me. All equal to the originals, and Don't Let It Show gets my favorite. Nothing I
don't like on this debut. Pat had a brilliant career ahead of her.

I LOVE THIS ALBUM

Worst Track - So Sincere

Best Track - Don't Let It Show

If it's getting harder to face everyday
Don't Let It Show, Don't Let It Show
Though it's getting harder to take what they say
Just let it go, just let it go

And if it hurts when they mention my name
Say you don't know me
And if it helps when they say I'm to blame
Say you don't own me

ooh...

Even if it's taking the easy way out
Keep it inside of you
Don't give in
Don't tell them anything

Don't Let It
Don't Let It Show

Even though you know it's the wrong thing to say
Say you don't care, say you don't care
Even if you want to believe there's a way
I won't be there, I won't be there

But if you smile when they mention my name
They'll never know you
And if you laugh when they say I'm to blame
They'll never own you

ooh...

Even though you think you've got nothing to hide
Keep it inside of you
Don't give in
Don't tell them anything

Don't Let It
Don't Let It Show

Even though you think you've got nothing to hide
Keep it inside of you
Don't give in
Don't tell them anything

Don't Let It
Don't Let It Show
