Feeling Cowsills nostalgic, I bought Susan's "Lighthouse" CD and was impressed by her cover of Barry's "River of Love." That led me to this surprisingly soulful album, which features intelligent songwriting, gut wrenching vocals and no frills guitar work, reminiscent of both Keith Richards and Neil Young at their best. That this powerful collection came from a Cowsill makes it all the more astonishing and all the more sad considering his untimely death. Do yourself a favor and buy a copy.

I saw a Cowsill concert recently, had been a fan in the 60's and 70's, and bought this album because Barry had obviously already passed away. I wanted to hear how his music had evolved. Boy, was I surprised. It was totally different than the old stuff...TOTALLY....but I loved it! Makes me wish more people could have heard it while he was living.

This is an interesting CD... I bought it because I wanted to see how Cowsill's music had evolved over the years. Not something I'd have to listen to again, though.
