Not from me...I never would have bought it! Come to think of it, I *didn't* buy it when it came out, I borrowed it from my friend David Russell and put it on tape, cutting "Tea Leaf" because I had to trim it to fit on one side of a 45-minute tape and I thought that one to be the worst. <<So what if it isn't Blue or FTR. It is still a great album compared to most of the stuff put out by other people.>> I just love all these rationalizations for defending Joni's weaker efforts, really...reminds me of when my Mom tried to convince me that I should eat the nasty-tasting food on my plate because kids in China were starving. And I even offered to mail them ALL my peas & carrots! :~) Of course, my Mom ALSO told me that if you can't say something nice about someone, don't say anything at all, so maybe I should just leave poor ol' CMIAR be.
