Multi-platinum debut album for Hornsby & the Range, including the title track as well as “Mandolin Rain.”

The Range included David Mansfield, George Marinelli, Joe Puerta, and John Molo – Huey Lewis guests on “Down the Road Tonight” and produced three tracks.

I imagine some people now know this as the track sampled in 2Pac’s “Changes” more than the original but it was all over the radio in 80s. They also won Best New Artist at the 1987 Grammy Awards.

Hornsby went on tour with the Grateful Dead in the early 90s, after Brent Mydland died.

My copy—via a record fair at Mill No. 5 in Lowell—is an Indianapolis pressing with the original inner liner. This is not though the first cover so clearly not a first pressing of the LP.
