Regarding Roger in Baltimore's 3rd album theory of 15 June 1999, a few posts up; certainly true for Judy Collins, not so true for others I can think of. Dylan's 2nd album, Freewheelin', was better than his 3rd; Phil Ochs' 2nd album, I Ain't Marching Any More, was better than his 3rd (In Concert); Tom Paxton's 3rd album came as a bit of a disappointment to me, compared to his 2nd; I prefer Clouds (joni Mitchell's 2nd) to Ladies of the Canyon (her 3rd).
