Wow, this is great stuff and much evolved from earlier MM. Allmusic calls it a darker Traffic.
 
Read track 3's title backwards. Our Mann Manfred was having some fun :angel10:

a very young Stevie Winwood:


Well, my pad is very messy
And there's whiskers on my chin
And I'm all hung up on music
And I always play to win


I ain't got no time for lovin'
'Cause my time is all used up
Just to sit around creatin'
All that groovy kind of stuff


But I'm a man, yes I am
And I can't help
But love you so

Nice. Linda Thompson has one of those voices, she could sing the phone book and I love it. Richard Thompson is such a understated, great guitarist.
