The day my father died
This double LP, made of bone-colored vinyl, contains 15 titles. The great thing about Brian is that he keeps taking different paths. The day my father died is a fairly intimate insight into his emotional life.
Strong songs besides The day my father died are Chariot and Baby don't lie.

Rating
The day my father died was recorded in different studios. The guest artists have also been recorded in different studios. The mastering was done by Joe LaPorta at Edgewater.
Not an audiophile LP but music and Brian's voice make it more than worth buying.
