J.T.
by Steve Earle & The Dukes
supported by 99 fans who also own “Double Rainbow”
The best I've heard from Steve Earle in a while. The songs have a subtler, earthier tone, tastefully rendered in authentic sounding country/blues/bluegrass stylings. 'J.T' reminds of earlier records like 'Feel Alright' or 'Train a Comin'. Deep grief, love and compassion is felt on the final track, the only composition from Steve, seemingly written for his son. The rest, composed by JT, do confirm what a great songwriter he really was.

Any collection that kicks off with Nikki Lane channeling Wanda Jackson is worth having by definition. The rest is just fine, too, especially Seratones' apocalyptic take on State Trooper. New West clearly curated this collection with care.

Riveting and hypnotic, “Exit Simulation” has the same sense of mystery as the best trip-hop, topped with ghostly vocal melodies.

Shovels & Rope’s latest continues their tradition of rugged, gutsy Americana with sharp edges and driving melodies.
