This beautiful track was the band's first #1 pop hit. Note: This copy comes in a vintage Columbia Records factory sleeve. It has Near Mint labels. The vinyl (styrene) looks Near Mint at first, but on close inspection has some light scuffing, lowering its grade to a strong EX. The audio grades a strong EX as well, tantalizingly close to Near Mint but with some scattered light "pops" toward the end that keep it from that grade. Still, what a gorgeous stereo experience with this one's spot-on arrangement of instruments and vocals. Cetera out-did himself here as a songwriter as well as making the most of his beautiful voice.
