Quiet introspection and a fascinating view of 'ordinary life' characterise the latest solo record from singer-songwriter Bill Callahan. Many of his lyrics are observations of the mundane, but elevated by his wordplay and the dreamy, lullaby like quality of the guitar strumming around them. Nothing along the way here is ever forced, it unfolds with a sense of realism that is compelling throughout, and though much of it is masculine in subject, there is a feminine side to the emotion that make it widely accessible. Folky music this warm, heartfelt and filled with simple gratitude is a stable for this label, but few do it as well as Bill.
