Album Notes & Community Reviews

Produced by esteemed music journalist Peter Guralnick, this exquisite release served as the final studio album for the legendary 'Silver Fox'. 'Pictures and Paintings' strips away the glossy countrypolitan production of his past in favor of lush, soulful, jazz-inflected arrangements. The record beautifully highlights the enduring power and melancholic depth of Rich's voice in his twilight years.
