This was Jackson Browne's second album and, while it still had a bit of a "work in progress" feel about it (in comparison to the more finished feel of his subsequent work), it is an album which shows his progression. He was an artist who wrote great songs and was looking for a sound to hang them on to, so to speak, and here he managed it a bit more confidently than he did on the bleak-ish debut album. It was a mixture of some catchy country, guitar-driven rock numbers and thoughtful, melodic slow ballads, plus one extended, grandiose narrative, philosophical, lyrically pertinent number to end with (something that became a tradition on future albums). He really is such a good lyricist, but on these early albums the sound is somewhat austere and tentative in places, not as confident as it would become by, say, 1976's "The Pretender". Therefore the album just doesn't quite tick all the boxes. Not quite, but almost. It is still a good album. "The punk panther"
