Track 3 from Tapestry
Length: 00:03:54 Year: 1971 |
|
|
Track Description:
This sounds lame when I write it, but long before I ever first visited the USA this recording encapsulated just about everything that I imagined was good about America. There is a wonderfully laid back feel to all the instrumentation, yet it works so well, and King's voice was never better than on this song. SHOW LESS

Track Description:
Sandy Denny at her finest. This song was a reflection on life and death, prompted by the result of an auto accident that killed the bands drummer and roadie. There is a sadness and beauty in her voice that I think has never been matched. SHOW LESS
