The Globe and Mail wrote that "the production is pure California—carefully textured, not a note out of place, bouncy and soulful without being crass or sweaty." [3]
All songs written by Gary Wright except as noted.
I Got a Name is the fifth and final studio album and first posthumous release by American singer-songwriter, Jim Croce, released on December 1, 1973. It features the ballad "I'll Have to Say I Love You in a Song", which reached number 9 in the US singles chart, and the ballad "Salon and Saloon", the last song Croce recorded in his lifetime.
