Yow, I was reading up on Hoyt Axton and I even went to that discography, too... Déjà vu, or what?!

"Flash Of Fire" (featuring Smokey Robinson's Miracles on background vocals), "Lay Lady Lay" (the Bob Dylan song, on which either Larry Carlton or Dean Parks is really playing a SITAR), and "Paid In Advance" made it onto Hoyt's Road Songs compilation (on which he is standing alongside that "Old Greyhound" (his Touring Bus/Motor Home) on the cover)...

A few years later Tim Curry put out his second A&M LP and it was titled Fearless which got me thinking (a dangerous thing, I know)... How many other A&M artists share A&M LPs with the same title?

Sergio Mendes - EQUINOX
Styx - EQUINOX
