Berkeley Woman is a standard folk song with a hypnotic progression, it's direct lyrics remind me of good blues song particular the line ''she screamed and she cried 'you dont give me near all the lovin that you should! But you're ready to go and lay with her; you're just no damn good!'" I'd Rather Be a Cowboy (Lady's Chains) has serene harmonies and heavy folk rock arrangement.
Please Daddy and River of Love are two fine examples of the pronounced country beat to his music that would prove successful the following years' Back Home Again. Whiskey Basin Blues features some startling mountain music in the form of a haunted, echoed yodelling break by Denver demonstrating his strong vocal chords. Sweet Misery is smooth soul music complete with Denver in full country accent, Zachary And Jennifer is a tender, finger picked ode to happiness and eternity. while We Don't Live Here No More is well written tune full of Denver's languishing voice.
