Reviewer: Jim Lewis from Lake Oswego, OR United States
This set appears to combine the two albums Ian and Sylvia recorded for MGM after leaving Vanguard. While you can still hear the folk influence, there are clear pop influences as well, particularly in "Sunday", which I used as the theme for a television program in the early seventies.

"Reason to Believe" is the best cover I've heard of the Tim Hardin song--"If I listened long enough to you/I'd find a way to believe that it's all true/Knowing that you lied straight faced while I cried/Still I look to find a reason to believe"--recently covered by Rod Stewart.

There's also great humor in "National Hotel" and a wistful love song to their child in "Mr. Spoons". This may be a bit more for Ian and Sylvia true believers than their folk era tunes, but it's a great collection.
