I have to admit, a lot of stuff that Jack Clement produced during the
'70s, I never got. "Dreaming My Dreams" -- and I admit here to being a
minority of one -- had some great songs but just didn't work as an album
for me. Jack's own album I couldn't finish. There's surely some work I
liked a whole lot (maybe with Tompall Glaser? Can't remember those
production credits and can't look right now, but I know they worked
together a lot) but he's always been one of those producers I've known I
was supposed to like but just couldn't. (And I should say this has no
effect on how much I appreciate his songwriting.)

Hope you recover quickly, Joe.
