About this album

Clear Sailin' is a strong late-1970s country-rock statement from Chris Hillman, balancing polished writing with the relaxed pulse that defined his best work. By 1977, Hillman was already established from The Byrds, The Flying Burrito Brothers and Manassas, and this solo album draws on that lineage without sounding recycled. Its blend of rock, folk and country touches, plus clear melodic focus, gives the record an understated confidence. Songs such as Hot Dusty Roads and Ain’t That Peculiar show Hillman’s ear for rootsy material and durable hooks, making the album a rewarding stop in his long run as one of California’s key country-rock figures.
