A mellow start with Rod's fine cover of "First Cut is the Deepest". VHM at the very least.

"I'm Chevy Chase, and I don't like you."

I've heard that this is kind of his M.O. in real life, actually.

Not to give WOS to Seger, but I just don't feel songs about how much rock, well, rocks.

For years, yes. A recent profile in EW indicated he's mellowed, but that may just be PR.  

Didn't have a clue what that second song was; guess the first cut wasn't the deepest after all.

"Get Closer" is far from Seals & Crofts' best work, but at least it's not the song about the unborn child (which I've yet to hear, but can't imagine I'd get behind).  Backing vocals from -- if memory serves -- one of the members of the Honey Cone.  Mike, can you confirm?

ok. even i can't stand this song. and i like seals and crofts. this sounds like what would happen if the kris kristofferson of "convoy" decided to settle down in a quiet mountain cabin with the meryl streep of "deer hunter," and he let her decorate the walls with faux animal-skin coverings.

I'd never heard that -- the woman's name was thrown around at the time but I've long forgotten.  I alwyas think of her as S&C's version of Odia Coates, speaking of unborn (and borne) childs.

Ever hear their great lost non-hit "King of Nothing"? That shoulda been huge.
