Moments Worth Listening For
The mournful, wheezing entry of the melodica on the title track that mimics the sound of a distant foghorn.
The way the rhythm section locks into a slow, swampy reggae-inflected groove on Paradise City.
The intimate, close-mic'd vocal delivery on Chelsea Blues that feels like a secret whispered directly into the ear.
