In the interim Stevens had become disillusioned with the pop scene, then became seriously ill and spent a year convalescing. When he returned with this album his sound had grown folksier and his songs more reflective and emotionally straightforward. acoustic guitar and spare backing by bass, keys, and drums framed these new compositions that dealt with the trials of fame, personal hardship and faith.
