Adobe & Teardrops: Episode 132

 It was my birthday! I got a refrigerator I can’t use! Also, there’s music!!!

Album of the Week: Scott Cook Tangle of Souls
 

 

 Damn, this is a gorgeous album. Scott Cook’s voice — vocally and lyrically — is as clear-eyed, optimistic, and straightforward as ever. I lost track of Cook for a while but he’s produced some of my favorite music that I’ve reviewed in 9 years of Adobe & Teardrops. Tangle of Souls is the medicine we could all use right now. As much as I enjoy the wave of experimentalism in Americana lately, at the end of the day you need great lyrics and a guitar and that’s what Cook does best.
