Pure & simple the best CD TR has ever recorded~ no question! And that amounts to a lot, because all his songs are terrific~ Nothing else to say, this CD covers it all!

This is a great CD to give you a full view of Tom Russell's amazing range of talent. It is hard to imagine that a better descriptive song than "US Steel" will ever be written, but give Tom time ..."Blue Wing" is also one of my many TR favorites.
I guess you must be aware of Mr. Russell or you wouldn't be readin' this, but just in case you've somehow been shortchanged by not having heard him ...change that situation!
This isn't mindless rock'n roll or "country-for-radio", it's travelin'n thinkin' music! Enjoy!

Tom is the official contemporary badass of American songwriting, in my humble opinion... kinda like Bob Dylan said about Lenny Bruce... "he's the brother that you never had."
