Captain Fantastic and the Brown Dirt Cowboy — 1975

An autobiographical concept peak of intricate songcraft. Ambitious and acclaimed. A high point. Later output that justifies the journey through the back catalogue.

On vinyl: A heavily reissued catalogue — read the remaster reviews before committing to a pressing.
