#2136 Scott Hirsh - Blue Rider Songs

A right pleasant drift of country swoon and honkytonk shuffle, with the occaisional blissful drift right on up into the moon. It's understated, My Morning Jacket or Wilco without the unbecoming ambition, just a humble passing through, little flourishes in the form of a rumbling sax accent, a lady passing though for the chorus, a few unfortunate Framptony guitar parts.

Still! It mostly puts right about the right amount of chrome on the worndown sound - at very least, Raga of the Sea and Blue within Blue are worth your 6 minutes to melt to 3.5/5
