"This was Sandy Denny's third solo-album. On her second album, the much acclaimed "Sandy", she had begun a slow departure from her folk-music roots. On this album you probably would not have thought of there being any folk-roots at all, if it had not been for her backing band consisting of people ..." [+] Reply

"Misfit country songwriter Sturgill Simpson may have changed his performing name, but he continues the lush country-soul he pioneered back on his Sailor's Guide to Earth album. Excellent! Track: What If the Sun Never Rises Again" Reply
