Album Notes

This is the first time this album has been released on cd by Rising Son Records, Arlo's private label. It has been out of print entirely for several years. Recently this was digitally remastered to meet the highest standards. This classic album is still fresh and enduring. The songs range from folk roots like Woody Guthrie's "Oklahoma Hills" and John Hurt's "Creole Belle" to Arlo's Woodstock anthem, "Coming In To Los Angeles" and his rocker, "Running Down The Road". For those who had this on LP it will be coming home to an old friend. New listeners will love it.

REVIEWS

good old country music
author: bill ford
Very countrified songs well delivered i bought this for the song My Front Pages, a song I heard Iain Mathews play 37 years ago and loved. It took me 36 years to track it to this album but the wait was worth it, a really great song.

Excellent album new to CD - worth the wait
author: Sheldon Rothman, Woodend, Australia
This album was Arlo's first attempt at being serious (like Pete Seeger said), so it wasn't as popular as it should have been when it first came out (except for Coming into Los Angeles). But now it's on CD and a welcome addition to Arlo's repertoire. Listen to Wheel of Fortune, My Front Pages (ok, a small joke, Bob) and Living in the Country to see how good Arlo really is. And well ok I've always liked Coming into LA.
