The first and best solo album from John Phillips (Papa John of the Mamas and the Papas). As you can hear, limitless drugs, money, and women will put you at perfect ease… for a time.

Spirit of a Woman, the second (and only other) album recorded during American Flyer’s brief life. Why no more, boys, why?!?!

Self-titled debut from Jackson Browne-esque soft-rock super group, American Flyer. Members include Craig Fuller from Pure Prairie League, Eric Kaz from Blues Magoos, Steve Katz from Blood, Sweat & Tears, and Doug Yule from the Velvet Underground. Easy, breezy, beautiful!

Ambitious title but, in the right crowd, not a complete joke. These guys are largely responsible for the coolest of the cool in early-mid ’80s British indie music. “David Hockney’s Diary” is a particular favorite.
