Son Volt, this album in particular, is best described in Vin's list. If you are at all into alt-country, you should have this album. It's totally timeless & makes one nostalgic for a time or place that maybe you've never even been, but it feels familiar and like home. Farrar's weathered but soothing voice sounds like it's been on a long journey & he takes you along with him in this album. -- sha_ney_ney
