Album Notes & Community Reviews

Produced by Graham Nash, 'Stories' presents a highly refined, deeply introspective set of contemporary folk compositions. The songwriter sheds some of the gritty, Dylan-esque posturing of his earlier work in favor of a polished, piano-and-acoustic-guitar-driven studio sheen. The album is a critically revered, emotionally resonant milestone in his discography.
