Album Notes

"This time out, Greg Brown turns his compassionate heart and sharp eye to the subject of love and romance for another sultry masterpiece. His rumbling baritone is as comforting as a country fireplace on a chilly winters' night, as he strings together semi-concious insight and plainspoken poetry to produce a trancy meditation on the many ways love can go right and wrong. "Rexroth's' Daughter" , an epic of lost love and alienation filled with Brown's exceptional wordplay, slides along on a gritty country groove. "Lullaby" describes the childlike wonder at the heart of a long term relationship with a few well placed chords and subtle melody, while "Walkin' Daddy" uses a bouncy blues shuffle to pay tribute to the singer's father for the love and responsibility he passed down to his offspring. Super guitarist Bo Ramsey is in the producers chair again, adding his subtle polish to this batch of tasty "Brownies". Four Stars" - Tower Pulse
