This is Seals and Crofts. This is another of my old
records which I replaced with a used c.d. at Street light C.D. The
title song makes this disc more than worth it. This is a song I can
listen to over and over. I keep trying to sing with it, and get mad at
myself for not doing better; then I realized theirs is a duet, with two
parts, and I can’t copy that by myself. However I really like the way
this is performed and the picture it paints of domestic tranquility.
Hummingbird is also a favorite, and has a religious connotation to the
artist. Say has an upbeat catchiness, and Boy Down the Road tells a nice story, and does the Funny Little Man.
When I was college age I had a flair for Seals and Croft, and
studied a bit about the BaHa'i faith as a result. That was when I was
intellectual and not very humble. Life has mellowed me now, and that
intellectual stuff doesn't appeal to me much any more. Some of the songs
have a special flair. I particularly don't like "Yellow Dirt Down in his
Soul" but in this case, "Summer Breeze" makes this album a keeper.
