Listening to this tonight - very smooth listen, maybe a touch saccharine, but very nice all the same.

The previous "Barton Hollow" from The Civil Wars was one of my favorite albums from 2012. I picked up the follow up album only recently and its equally impressive. Vinyl version is a double LP.

Don't know if this has been mentioned already but it's a damn fine album from another Cash - Rosanne Cash "The River & The Thread"

Also liking most of the tracks on the Patty Griffin album "American Kid" & loving Jason Isbell "Southeastern"

For Digital Audio playback that delivers WHERE the performers are on stage but more importantly WHY they are there.

Done a bit of spotifying and the Jason Isbell and Amy Ray are certainly interesting.

May even help explain some of the voicing on the Ciúnas converter!
