Takin' It Easy is the ninth studio album by Seals and Crofts, released in 1978 by Warner Bros.
The title track reached #79 later the same year and #13 on the Canadian AC charts.
[4] The title track has a more rock-oriented approach than was the band's usual fare, and was essentially a James Seals solo track, with Dash Crofts making no contribution to either writing or performing it.
The album in general relied more heavily on outside musicians and songwriters than Seals and Crofts's previous albums, with the duo writing barely half the songs themselves and only occasionally performing anything other than lead vocals.
