Similar could be said for the drumming at times. It's just full of ups and downs.

By the time of
Vol.4 the band's customary acoustic track had become somewhat predictable, therefore "Laguna Sunrise" is nothing special. As for the production I think it's one of their best and it was the only album that they produced at this time outside the UK and for these reasons the whole album has a distinct feel and certainly their most interesting.
