Together One is something that really grew on me over time, it's almost Bee Gees lyrics with a country-folk expression. As lovely as anything by Fairport or The Byrds.
Mostly all we have are accounts of Jeremy in lame suit with Cliff or Harold or whatever they called it in his pocket. A genuine show stopper in it's time. It wasn't until I heard Elvis on the Madison Blues set where I really started to 'get' that at this remove, and it was hysterical. I often wonder what Phil Ochs might have thought as he was grapsing for something along those lines perhaps too about then. A lot of people were feeling lost around 1970, and looking back in various ways.
