- Is this the Flatlanders' first album?
- Yes. It is the group's 1972 studio debut, cut in Nashville with Jimmie Dale Gilmore, Joe Ely and Butch Hancock. The three later became solo artists, and their solo records are cleaner and more varied.
- What kind of music is on it?
- Country-rock and folk-rock with Texas roots. Expect acoustic and electric backing, plainspoken lyrics and Gilmore's high, quavering lead vocal.
- Is it a good starting point for the Flatlanders?
- It is the historical starting point, but the rougher sound makes later compilations easier for newcomers. Buy this if you want the original album as released.
- Does it come with a download code or bonus tracks?
- The standard LP is a single record of the original album. Check the back cover for any download card, since pressings vary.
- How does it compare with the members' solo albums?
- It is looser and more homemade than Ely's or Gilmore's solo records. The songwriting is the draw; the production is not.
