Andy Pratt is the second studio album by American singer-songwriter Andy Pratt, released in 1973 by Columbia Records. It was Pratt's first album of entirely new music since his debut Records Are Like Life in 1969.

On release, Pratt received a positive critical reception, but had only modest commercial success.[4] The only single issued from Andy Pratt: "Avenging Annie" was also a moderate success, peaking at number 78 in the US.[5]

Critical reception

In 1973, the album was ranked No. 3 on Dutch Muziekkrant OOR's list of best albums of 1973.[6] And Al Kooper listed the album at No. 58 on his list of 100 Greatest Recordings of All Time.[7]

The album has consistently been praised by critics. Reviewing the album in his consumer guide for The Village Voice, Robert Christgau gave the album a C and highly praised the track "Avenging Annie" commenting that it "is an astounding tale of feminist revenge in the twilight of the counterculture." but didn't comment on any of the other tracks off the album.

In a retrospective review for AllMusic, critic Michael Ofjord gave the album four and a half out of five stars and wrote that "Andy Pratt's self-titled album is a very quirky, idiosyncratic album that definitely establishes Pratt as a major force in the singer-songwriter arena." while also praising "Avenging Annie" commenting that "The fast piano technique is impressive, as are some other production touches (such as the cat sounds and descending guitar line). The song deserves its classic status hands down."
