Customer Review Loudon's best CD in my opinion! This is my favorite Loudon CD by far, closely followed by Album II. I was turned on to this album in 1970 by a friend, Jay Pink, days after it came out and am glad to see it finally released on CD. The reason is that it is just Loudon and guitar and the songs are so unique. No band here to mess things up. If you have ever caught Loudon live, you will know he is at his best with just guitar and vocals. The songs are first rate with "School Days", "Black Uncle Remus", and "Uptown" being among my favorite songs. If you are accustomed to only his novelty songs, you may not like this CD, however, you might. I think it is one of the best and most underrated CD's of the 1970's. . .
