Tis an unusual album. The songs are amusing, if not memorable. The
sound... well, you KNOW he made this album mostly to capture that
great acoustic sound. I like the original "Complicated Shadows" (from
All This Useless Beauty) more than I liked this version, but it was
fun to hear it reimagined. I like the way that harmonies are buried
way down in the mix -- Lauderdale and Harris are usually mixed right
up front.
