Gerry Rafferty (1971) Didn't I
From Rafferty's first solo album Can I Have My Money Back, using the band that would become Stealer's Wheel, this song has the strong country overtones that marked that band's work and would continue to crop up in his solo career like in City to City. There's still a folksy whimsy sound to it but also some of the fun and lightheartedness that would become less and less as his career went on. SO worth listening to for the range of influences and consistent quality of the album track by track from a still much underappreciated artist who proved himself time and time again.
