Amigo

Arlo Guthrie

A warm, travel-worn collection of 1970s folk rock. It moves from playful global rhythms to somber political tributes with a gentle, salt-aired production.

September 1976 · Reprise Records

A gentle blend of travel-weary nostalgia and quiet political conviction.

Moments Worth Listening For
The transition from the playful, rhythmic Zulu adaptation of Guabi Guabi into the lush, state-anthem sincerity of Massachusetts.
The somber, reverent shift in tone during Victor Jara, where the production thins out to honor the martyred Chilean folk singer.
The jittery, upbeat country-rock energy of Connection that contrasts its lyrics about customs inspections and medical paranoia.
Where This Album DepartsEach spoke is a trait. The orange shape shows where this album pulls away from — or holds to — the rest of the artist’s catalogue. Tap for more.
