Immaculate new remastering and repressing of a classic album, even if I can't listen to it without thinking about missing ears.

Gerry Rafferty - City to City
Waah-waah-waah it's too slick waaaaahhhh!
This is as perfect a piece of pop craftsmanship as you'll find, and a defining record of the 70s. You just *know* you can hear that Ravenscroft sax hook in your head right now...but it's not just that. Every song is chock-a-block with great sonic details.
Yes, it's polished. Why should that be held against it?
(Recent re-release with extra material; = I have an original, too.)

Great Albums of the 70s: #GerryRafferty – #CityToCity (1978). Raphael Ravenscroft’s sax riff alone would have immortalized “Baker Street,” but Rafferty is the one calling the shots. His writing has the kind of simplicity only struggle can inspire, with gospel, country, and Celtic elements in a unified sonic tapestry. “Right Down the Line” is AM pop perfection, and “The Ark” takes you on a dream journey “where all strangers are known.”
