About this item
Product Description
Intimate and personal, a perfect blend of orchestral sweep and glam rock swagger. A true masterpiece from one of the guiding lights of Americana. "Exploring the peaks and valleys of melody and rich arrangements, creating the most subtle, textured album of his career." - PITCHFORK
Review
Musically, Escovedo is his own genre, a folk-blues classicist with a gritty plaintive voice and an equal fondness for dirty boogie and spectral balladry. With this album, Escovedo's own pilgrimage out of the shadows continues with power and elegance. --David Fricke, Rolling Stone
Alejandro Escovedo takes a song and makes it absolutely his own, and he swings easily from rocking numbers to slow songs played with elegant sadness. His versatility in things musical is a joy to hear and see. He's one of the best I know about, one of those songwriters whose words I never tire of. Wherever I go, people talk about him with awe. Even if he takes me someplace beyond lonely for a while, that s okay, because I know, like Alejandro, that hearts like ours were made to be broke. --Larry Brown, Men's Journal
The depth and breadth, the elegance and power of Escovedo s songwriting is realized like never before. From top to bottom this album has no weakness. Of the 2500 CDs that I will hear this year, I can say with absolute certainty that this will be the best. --The Leader Post
