7/10 Well, you know the guy from the S&G duo, as always, amazing songwriting. A very easy going and peaceful record. Almost transcendental. The flow is perfect. Album starts off with on a depressing note, about a mother contemplating suicide to reunite with her dead son, sung in an angelic voice as if hiding all that sadness. Then we get to my favourite track of the album, "Duncan", which blasts all that depression away with it's cheeky humorous tone (oh, and love the flute on this one). This mixture of light and dark, funny and serious is part of what makes this LP work so well. Well, not gonna be dissecting every track of this album as only some tracks truly stuck with me. There are no real duds on this one - that sweet, peaceful, angelic tone is present throughout the album, it's just me not being able to connect with a sizable chunk, especially slide 2 which was definitely weaker than the first. Still, a great album and a great listening experience.
