Dave Mason — Split Coconut (September 19, 1975)
♦★♦ Měřeno celoživotní láskou ke kreativitě v celém nahrávacím procesu. Už od prvotní myšlenky, přes velmi pečlivý ponor do výběru materiálu, až k dokonalému lineup, vhodnému pro tuto hudbu. Posuďte sami. Od koho se učili Joe Zawinul, Graham Nash, Carlos Santana, David Crosby, režisér, mixing engineer a producent Bruce Botnick..., a koneckonců i Dave Mason? To není z lidského zdroje toto..., a ani nemůže být... Allmusic’s brief retrospective review called the album a major disappointment after Mason’s first two albums for Columbia, claiming that the songs seem both hastily written and hastily recorded.

♦ Dave Mason’s relentless touring and recording schedule may have been draining his creativity at this point, but Split Coconut was a drop–off from his first two Columbia albums, the songs seemingly thrown together and recorded quickly. Mason enlisted strong vocal assistance from Graham Nash and David Crosby and the Manhattan Transfer. But he had set a higher songwriting standard for himself than he was meeting here. (Originally released by Columbia Records as Columbia 33698, Split Coconut was reissued on CD by One Way Records as One Way 26079 on September 26, 1995.)
