So, turns out i wasn't the only person in the country to have bought this album - and I think this is the best track. Wonderful to hear it again. Thanks for posting.
Emitt's first three albums are just gems - never to be repeated because if cool funky sound. "Paradise" is a decline and since then - pretty awful, But that's okay. Wish he found more happiness in life...
Hi Jane, and yes I do remember Emitt Rhodes very well. You know he had that big hit "Fresh As A Daisy" in 1970, and all of his albums were great too. He should have been a humongous star, but I think the big name bands in the early 70s like Led Zep overshadowed him too much. Thanks for sharing this Jane, enjoyed it :o) -Ron
Great song. Had the Mirror album in 1971. Do you have "In Desperate Need" from Farewell To Paradise. No Emitt Rhodes on ITunes in UK....and that's a disgrace. Many Thanks
Brilliant song - now I know where Gerry Rafferty got the idea for his song 'Waiting For the Day' six years later on the album 'City to City'

Beatlefan64, would you be so kind to upload "Mirror"? I really enjoyed that song when I was only 15 and I haven´t been able to find it.
Thank you for uploading these great songs! Bless you!

You really have to add &fmt=18 to the URL on this one to hear it in higher fidelity and stereo.

An unheralded and unappreciated genius. I would absolutely love it if "Golden Child of God" were to be posted.

When this was released, we all thought it sounded just like McCartney's WINGS. What a tremendous talent.

Ok, I'll see what I can put together. I wish there were more pictures of Emitt on the internet, there doesn't seem to be that many to choose from.
