Recorded at Warner Bros. Recording Studio, North Hollywood, California in 1976. Includes liner notes by Arlo Guthrie.
Released in the year of the American Bicentennial, Arlo Guthrie's AMIGO is rich with a sense of love for his homeland. Perhaps most stirring is "Massachusetts," a song that could easily be adopted as the state's anthem. He manages to express deep feelings in a manner that never devolves to clichT or empty boosterism, capturing the spiritual unity one can feel with one's home. The album is again produced by John Pilla and features the usual band of studio cohorts.
The arrangements and playing all support one of the finest sets of songs in Guthrie's career. He wrote all but three of them, and the album closes with his cover of the Rolling Stones' "Connection." While it may have been hard to anticipate that particular cover when his debut ALICE'S RESTAURANT was released, "Connection" is of a piece with his own "Coming Into Los Angeles" (from RUNNING DOWN THE ROAD, his third album). For Guthrie fans, AMIGO is an essential title, and for anyone unfamiliar with his work, this is a perfect starting point.
