What Are You Listening To?

[Music Head]

from my library



The 4th album weighted pretty evenly with some real good and some real bad stuff for me. The last one with Bernie Leadon. Probably wishes he'd have stuck around for awhile. Track on here of I Wish You Peace was co-written by him and Ronald Reagan's daughter Patti Davis. His association with someone who had a connection to the awful republicans actually led to political tensions within the band, even though Patti regularly dissed Ron at the time. The title track was a #1 but I never cared for it that much, hearing the disco feel, and that Bee Gees falsetto at the end was so annoying. Always preferred the mellower stuff with these guys. Randy Meisner got a rare lead vocal on my favorite track here of Take It To The Limit hitting #4. Getting four 3 star ratings I thought this would have rated higher, but the 1 ratings drug it down. It hit #1 in the states, with Lyin' Eyes making #2. Unbelievable there is no clips for most of these.


I LIKE THIS ALBUM

Worst Track - Journey Of The Sorcerer

Best Track - Take It To The Limit

All alone at the end of the of the evening
And the bright lights have faded to blue
I was thinking 'bout a woman who might have
Loved me and I never knew
You know I've always been a dreamer
(spent my life running 'round)
And it's so hard to change
(can't seem to settle down)
But the dreams I've seen lately
Keep on turning out and burning out
And turning out the same
So put me on a highway
And show me a sign
And take it to the limit one more time
You can spend all your time making money
You can spend all your love making time
If it all fell to pieces tomorrow
Would you still be mine?
And when you're looking for your freedom
(nobody seems to care)
And you can't find the door
(can't find it anywhere)
When there's nothing to believe in
Still you're coming back, you're running back
You're coming back for more
So put me on a highway
And show me a sign
And take it to the limit one more time
Take it to the limit
Take it to the limit
Take it to the limit one more time
