"Mr. AOR" Michael Franks' new and refined city music album.
A representative masterpiece from Michael Franks in 1977. A polished work that was further refined by the completion of his debut album.
Featuring Michael Brecker and the Crusaders as participating musicians, the band has created songs that incorporate delicate sounds and break away from the stereotypes of AOR that had existed up until that point.
