Gerry Rafferty - On a Wing & A Prayer (1992)
Gerry Rafferty -On a wing and a prayer 1992
7th album by Gerry Rafferty and his best from what I have heard.
Previously in the Humblebums with Billy Connolly and the commercially successful Stealers Wheel
Baker Street has to be one of the tracks of all time ever. This album is in that league

Talking music to a business friend he said he had been around the studios when it was being made and rated it highly.
Sounded reasonable enough to me on sampling so I ordered the CD.
First play I could hear good things and have played it very many tines since.
Play it once and you will like it. The more you play the better it becomes
It is a gem.
Broad appeal to those who like poppy style as well as those who like music played and recorded well.
Very much about his divorce from his wife of 20 years. He was not a happy man at the time but the music transcends that
Wikipedia:
Gerry Rafferty asked his friend Joe Egan to collaborate on some of the album's songs, some of which were new renditions of Stealers Wheel-era songs
Play it a few time at reasonable volume
