This turned me onto Ryan Adams around 2002. Obviously had to reconsider my views on the reprehensible man since, but the music is great and I did like this before he was a baddie (I think 🤔). Gold is probably more accessible and better as a crossover of musical styles, but this collection is tender and draws you in, showing exactly how modern country and folk can make even hardened British indie kids take note. Quite lovely. 4 stars. Awful human.
