Steve Miller’s follow up to his massively successful ˝Fly Like an Eagle˝ was nearly as popular.
Between them, the two albums contain 90% of Miller’s best known material. ˝Book of Dreams˝ is another platter featuring Miller at his radio friendly best, hook laden songs, ace guitar work, warm lead vocals and middle-of-the road sensibility. ˝Jet Airliner,˝ ˝Swingtown˝ and the eminently silly ˝Jungle Love˝ were the three big hits off this album, while ˝True Fine Love˝ and ˝Wintertime˝ are two other staples that appeared on his 1974-78 Greatest Hits album.
The second half of the album admittedly lags, with obvious filler material rounding it out, but this is still a strong collection of songs from the Space Cowboy.
