Found this in the bargain bin at my local vinyl store.

It’s pretty good.

Got Dickey, Chuck, and Jaimoe, and Johnny Sandlin guesting on some songs.

And good guitar work by two guys I’d never heard of before: Dru Lombar and TJ Tindall?

Worth a listen.

I bought that when it came out in 1974 I think was the year. It didnt sell much so I don't know if Capricorn dud another album with Bobby. But it's a real good album.

Dru Lombar, if I remember correctly, was in Grinderswitch. They had a few albums on Capricorn but they didnt sell well. Saw them open for the ABB about 1974 and they were real good. Nice tight little band. I think ABB roadie Joe Dan was in that band too.

That is correct... Joe Dan Petty was a member of Grinderswitch & Dickey's guitar tech.

The other guitar player on the album, TJ Tindall -- who from the liner notes appears to be the main player throughout the album -- had himself a really nice career too.

No wonder the playing sounded so good.
