Buffy Sainte-Marie is singing well and writing nice melodies, and I think her idea [in Changing Woman] was to simplify, simplify. But her lyrics are starting to remind me of leftover corn flakes. I mean, if all you want to say is "I love you," maybe it's better to put off writing a batch of song lyrics until something a little more specific comes to mind. Just a thought. It might be a good idea, too, to examine some of these lines, such as "laughter is the grease of growth," in the clear light of morning before rushing off to the mailbox with the copyright papers. If you can stand the words, this album has a nice sound to it….
