is an album by American singer-songwriter , released in 1973. At the time of its release, it only reached #6 on the Billboard album chart, but has remained highly regarded by her fans over the ensuing decades. Presented as a sort of song cycle, the album opens and closes with two versions of the title song and the songs on each side segue directly into one another. The Spanish language track (the Spanish word for "heart," also used as a term of endearment, as in this song's lyrics) was a moderate hit single from the album, as was The flip side of the latter single, (not the hit), charted separately from its A-side. Even in 1973, 's landmark album was still high on the charts. was the first album to break the immediately recognizable, cozy sound set by and made definitive by . In the place of the warm, spare tones was a polished, soulful production. In many respects this album coasts on groove more than anything else. Sometimes it does work. comes off as subtle and accomplished, especially with 's great guitar work. pretty much covers well-worn ground. Those looking for , Pt. 2 or 3 would come up empty, but the core of does deliver on its idiosyncratic promise. has Latin intonations and King certainly doesn't embarrass herself. The album's best song by a long shot is On that track in particular all of the elements coalesce and might make listeners wish they took the harder sound and well-meaning messages even further, even for the hell of it. Some of the other tracks, most notably proves that although knows the ins and outs of human nature, a story song isn't her forte. While the virtues of Music and Rhymes & Reasons tend to blur for some, stands out as a risky and sometimes fulfilling effort.
