Larry Lee is an underrated talent in the roosty and very bluegrass dominated group who could create tunes that were laidback yet striking. His vocals on this Jackie Blue are the very definition of subtle with a calming and very unique voice filled with nuance. It's no wonder along with his songwriting abilities he would bring the group it's biggest commercial success, he has songs that in my opinion are more interesting and have aged better than say some of the over played Eagles singles such as Lyin Eyes and Tequila Sunrise.

Ozark Mountain Daredevils(1975) Mr Powell
Another Larry Lee track this is incredibly cool high tenor vocal over a bed of dramatic mandolin, gliding arrangements of flute and choral backing vocals; and not forgetting that harpsichord opening.
