THE RESTFUL MIND

Unusual for Coryell at the time, this is the first fish in the sea of acoustic Coryell albums after the demise of Eleventh House. Joined by several Oregon band members. The first improvisation is decent virtuoso on acoustic guitar and does not lack emotions. Other tracks noticeably miss rhythm section and the mellow noodling on acoustic instruments may sound tiring. "Julie La Belle" has congas at least and feature interesting tonality and chords by Coryell. The last title track belongs to the sleepest ones on the album. This album is not I associate 70's Coryell with as it is lacking energy and jazz elements.
