Album Notes & Community Reviews
Serving as a profoundly moving, highly anticipated comeback following years of severe mental health struggles, 'All That May Do My Rhyme' features Roky Erickson in a surprisingly clear-eyed, deeply acoustic setting. The album perfectly highlights the enduring strength of his soulful, blues-inflected vocals and highly melodic songwriting. It is heavily revered as a beautiful, warmly redemptive chapter in the psychedelic rock legend's turbulent life.
