"'Frisco Mabel Joy was produced back at Cinderella Sound, newly upgraded from eight to sixteen tracks. Drawing on a larger cast of musicians (dubbed by Mickey 'The Nashphilharmonic'), the Newbury Universe expanded, adding clusters of steel and electric guitar overdubs to create expansive orchestral crescendos for his delicately constructed guitar-and-vocal compositions. The album's opening track was perhaps its most arresting: 'An American Trilogy,' combined 'Dixie,' 'Battle Hymn of the Republic' and 'All My Trials' into a searing medley that spoke to the political crisis in the country while standing simultaneously as a personal American ode. It became his most-covered composition, and his own version cracked the Top-40 singles chart."
