Lauderdale’s album Blue Moon Junction was co-written w/ Grateful Dead’s lyricist Robert Hunter, and so is this one. Great stuff in the vein of Dave Alvin, Greg Brown, Americana - gritty, mean, rollickin’. Killer throughout. Produced by Luther Dickinson, featuring Luther on gtr, his brother Cody on drums, Sponner Oldham on keys. and Amy LaVere and Shannon McNally of Luther’s band The Wandering. All songs fantastic!! No FCC’s.
*My Favorites*: Every one.
1. (2:40) Mid. Crunchy gtr, mean vibe.
2. (2:57) Mid. Plodding gait, stop/start phrases.
3. (3:18) Slow / Mid. Mellow w/ horns.
4. (3:37) Mid. Easy-going ride.
5. (3:24) Mid. Upbeat rollicking funky country vibe.
6. (4:05) Mid. Down ‘n’ dirty gritty groover.
7. (4:32) Slow / Mid. Sparse dirge.
8. (4:22) Slow / Mid. Mean, ominous vibe.
9. (2:46) Mid. Good-timey galloping strut.
10. (2:38) Mid. Drivin’, chuggin’, rockin’ - killin’!!!
11. (5:08) Mid. Mellow bluesy glide.
12. (2:18) Mid. Drivin’ barn-burner.
13. (3:49) Mid. Mean, gritty, full-throttle romp.
14. (3:04) Slow / Mid. Title track. Mellow, beautiful.
