REVIEW
by James Chrispell
Pared down to a duo, the main songwriters and singers Torn Kelly and Denny Henson, playing as Fool's Gold, switched labels and went for the slick L.A. sound that was being offered up in the mid-'70s. Mr. Lucky, while trying harder than their first disc, doesn't have the warmth and charm that disc had. Aided by some fine musicians, Fool's Gold tries for the gold, but only end up with the dust. Mr. Lucky failed to live up to expectations of their earlier fans and didn't add anyone new to their fanbase. In the end, Fool's Gold appeared to be just that.
