I like how Formentera Lady and Islands are both, like, just pure, unadulterated beauty but then Ladies Of The Road is like King Crimson doing Flo & Eddie era Zappa

Very underrated. Quite a few beautiful and serene tracks. The title track steals the show for sure though. For some reason it kinda reminds me of childhood (in the 90'ies... haha) because it has such a comforting feel to it. Maybe because there was music like this on some of my childstory cassettes?

As a late arriver to KC, I put this up there pretty high, still exploring, but I tend to like earlier stuff if most bsnds

This album gives me a weird nostalgic feeling, despite the fact I only just heard it for the first time a week ago.
