It is over.

It was OK but sounded like you expect an old-style Country album to sound.

Now to look back at the thread and see what everybody else made of it. Excited

I shall give it 3 stars.

It is over.

What a very lovely album it is.

Absurdly short, but such were things then.

There are songs that are about heartbreak and betrayal, but there's no trace of bitterness to any of it.

And the songs about real love, commitment and friendship rang true and pure-of-heart.

In respects of it being a 'genre work' I can't fault it.

I find it charming, mellow and unadulterated from beginning to end.
