详细介绍:
Twangier than most Americana, and at once more traditional and cooler than most contemporary country records, the first album from Plains—Katie Crutchfield of Waxahatchee and Texas singer-songwriter Jess Williamson—is what would%27ve been called alt country 25 years ago, before that catch-all fell out of style. It immediately feels as comfortable as a perfectly worn-in old denim jacket. There are shades of both artists%27 solo work, for sure: Opener Summer Sun is as breezy and welcoming as Waxahatchee%27s excellent Can%27t Do Much, with the added bonus of Williamson (not to mention evocative scene-setting: When the summer sun melts candles/ I dig out the wick). The two reference a slew of great duos, including Stevie Nicks and Lindsey Buckingham—both in vocal harmony and guitar—on the groovy break-up song Problem With It: If it%27s all you got, yeah/ It%27s all you gave/ I got a problem with it/ If you can%27t do better than that, babe/ I got a problem with it, they sing, even the lyrics befitting Fleetwood Mac. Crystal-clear No Record of Wrongs recalls the unjustly overlooked Belle Brigade (who themselves often sounded like a Buckingham-Christine McVie tribute band), while Hurricane echoes The Wreckers, with Williamson and Crutchfield sounding charmed on lines like I come in like a cannonball/ I%27ve been that way my whole life/ Sweet as honeysuckle/ When you want a pocket knife. Bellafatima, with its romantic border-country swoon, is something like Freakwater polished to a high-brass sheen. Expanding the ranks, drawling and warm-hearted Line of Sight brings to mind The Chicks. Ballad Easy offers a balm of pragmatic, chin-up reassurance: You%27re not going to believe it/ When you shake off/ What%27s weighing down heavily/ But it%27s not going to be easy. And memorable Abilene, which exudes a cool, The Band-style of country, probes the new American dream of escaping to an easier town and way of life—and trying to put the ache of breakup and What if? behind you when it doesn%27t work out. Young lovers like to dream/ We%27ll settle down and make a good team/ The Main Street was cute and the rents there were cheap/ But I was too much for you and your Abilene, Williamson leads. Classify it as you will, but I Walked With You A Ways is the kind of country record that country music needs more of.
