Gemstones
Adam Green

Driving along my morning commute, enjoying Green's smooth voice and sweet Wurlitzer piano, I nearly had a few accidents as my attention was continually drawn away from potential road hazards to the lyrics. "What did he just sing? Where the hell did that come from? Am I not following the narrative? Oh my God, they closed the road for construction!" As soon as I could, I had to listen again (yay for so much goodness packed in a half hour!) and follow along to try and see if my attention was at fault or if the lyrics were, indeed, absolutely bonkers. Bonkers and brilliant! That said, even without the lyrics I would absolutely love this dreamy-sounding album.
