BRUCE COCKBURN
with EUGENE MARTYNEC, ERIC NAGLER, JOHN WYRE, MICHAEL CRAYDON
This guitarist and singer/songwriter has long been heralded as Canada’s best-kept secret.Immensely popular in his native Canada, singer/songwriter Bruce Cockburn has found only cult success
south of the border, in spite of a rich, varied body of work and considerable critical nods. He has won numerous Juno Awards
and has kept the quality control on most of his albums at a high level. Cockburn's first decade of work (1970-1979)
is largely literate, singer/songwriter folk-rock, often with a strong Christian tone and mystical, devotional lyrics

RECORD EX but (please, read above description)
SLEEVE EX but (please, see pictures and read above description)
A remarkably fresh and timeless recording, Bruce Cockburn's second album concentrates far more on roots music than its predecessor.
There's the ragtime blues of "Happy Good Morning Blues," the ambitious minor-key troubadour folk of "Love Song," and the slide guitar country
of "One Day I Walk" to kick things off. And over the album's original ten songs it just becomes more ambitious. "Golden Serpent Blues,"
with its poignant and percussive piano lines, is something out of a Western Canadian barrelhouse where the piano player has heard
and loved "Lady Madonna." Overall, however, this album -- like Sunwheel Dance that follows it -- presents a far more mystical Cockburn.
His tenderness and poetic vision are almost pastoral on these early recordings, something that would get burned off and become hard-bitten
(if no less romantic and more dramatic) as his music and social vision grew...(AllMusic)
