Album Notes & Community Reviews

Following the monumental critical acclaim and utter commercial failure of 'No Other', the former Byrds songwriter returns with a slightly more traditional, acoustic-leaning country-rock effort. Featuring an extensive cast of elite session players, the album beautifully frames his deeply introspective, melancholic lyricism with warm, pedal-steel-drenched orchestrations. Despite the impeccable songcraft, the record tragically failed to revitalize his struggling solo career.
