Neil's seventh studio album, recorded between mid-June 1974 and the end of August 1975, and released in November 1975.
Hughesy's assessment: Coming on the heels of Tonight's The Night's obsessive gloom, one might have suspected Neil had lost the abilityto connect with the average rock consumer. Any suspicions along those line disappear by half way through Don't Cry No Tears and have become distant memories by the end of Danger Bird. And Cortez The Killer is still to come. But that's hindsight at work. Still, Essential.
