I’ll admit that there are a few artists in my list of favorites that consistently churn out album after album of songs that are almost indistinguishable from one another. I don’t mind that sort of consistency but the artists that I truly love will always be the ones that evolve with each new album while staying true to the qualities that made me devote large quantities of time and money to them in the first place.
Admittedly, this album took few listens before I was completely on board – but after that I was hooked. As with all of the albums we select as our “Staff Pick”, all of the songs are great, but my favorites are; “Hanging Tree” (What mom can’t appreciate the line “This dizzy life of mine keeps hanging me up all the time”), “Sundays”, “Cowboys”, “Anyone But You” and “You Can’t Count On Me”.
This album was produced in two parts and feels like the soundtrack of those pre-kid weekends when loud, fast-paced evenings eased into slow, mellow mornings. Unlike these post-kid weekends that are loud and fast-paced from start to finish.
