Notes

Important uncredited: it is widely know, despite its omission, that Rita Coolidge wrote the instrumental coda (she was with her then-boyfriend Jim Gordon). In her auto-biography, she states she still has never been credited nor paid for this wonderful piano arrangement that she composed.

As I sit here listening I really like this copy. The music sounds quite good. Very glad I picked this up.

Muddy pressing. Side four is the worst. Cannot recommend this one.

This is a beautiful package!, colorful , and clean. Will look great in your collection

Compared to the later remasters, this is way better. A sonic treat.
I'm lucky to have picked up a copy that looks and sounds unplayed. A decent pressing to boot.
The sound is clear and dynamic with great soundstage. Now my go-to copy.

Love the sound of this disc. But it’s only a minor step up from my late 80s Polydor double CD. You can’t go wrong with either copy. If you love this album get the mofi, but if you’re a casual fan the late 80s CDs are just fine!

Horrible pressing! I put off getting this for the longest time. I should’ve waited longer but I guess it’s a good enough place holder. Very flat sounding with no dynamics

I don’t really like this pressing that much to be honest, my near mint copy still has some playback problems, and the quieter instruments kind of get lost in the sauce. I would recommend a sterling cut from the Polydor label personally.

I might like this even better than my OG CTH (I've yet to A-B them). Great sound on this one.

Also, and this may be just be fading on my OG copy, but the repress cover has much better saturation, and makes the OG look a bit dull by comparison.

I've never been an Eric fan, but I love D Allman and his guitar style and sound. For years, I've ed on this gatefold record for several reasons, low on my list, but today, I found a VG+ media and VG+ cover! I'm very impressed with having to wait 50-plus years to play it.

Sounds great. Especially bell bottom blues. It's like hearing that song for the first time. But who knows I may of just never really listened to it before haha.
