Got a request for this album and though it's ET past his prime and it's a little noisy it still has it's charms.
The Door Is Always Open was the very last track ET ever recorded for Decca/MCA ending a very solid 35 year run and he didn't step into a studio until he did the Last Generation recordings for Pete Drake in March of 1977.
