Rolling Stone's 391st greatest album of all time
Good soft rock / light blues songs ranging from his typical Eagles-like style to ore country songs and even some mariachi hints. An interesting listen.

Rolling Stone's 359th greatest album of all time
Great typical 70s rock album, quite a folk/country flavour as well as John's trademark rock and roll style. The only well known song here is the epic Rocket Man, but the rest fits well with the style of that and the album is a really good listen.
