Moments Worth Listening For
The hauntingly sparse arrangement of I Never Cared for You where the nylon strings feel like they are weeping.
The lush, almost cinematic swell of strings that elevates the weary travel narrative of The Highway.
The moment his voice cracks slightly on the high note of Mr. Record Man, signaling decades of road-worn wisdom.
