Overlooked Follow-Ups


Gene Bartow won 52 of the 60 games he coached at UCLA, but had the misfortune of following John Wooden. Bartow was no John Wooden, but 52 of 60 is pretty impressive. I mention this because I just finished listening to Jennifer Warnes "The Hunter", her follow up to "Famous Blue Raincoat". The songs don't measure up to "FBR", but there's some very good music, her voice is great, and IMHO the recording quality is tremendous. It seams like the record suffered from being in the shadow of its predecessor. Any others overlooked for similar reasons

IMO: FBR, The Hunter and The Well are superb releases. I've always thought of FBR and The Hunter separately and unrelated for some reason. Maybe because FBR has a theme and The Hunter is a collection of songs written by various artists.

On a related note; I've been waiting for the release of the Gold re-mastered CDs from Cisco for a while now. I know Cisco has had some major problems but hopefully these will see the light of day soon.
