"Yes that's me driving along with glazed eyes, CD player going, off in a CN-induced dream state....'course them Kinmans always place me directly in heaven, as they themselves know (snort). No but really, this album was not as immediately accessible as "A Journey Out of Time", but upon repeated listenings, the wonderful details come forth and stick in your mind, like the final note of "Cowboy Nation" (and the whole song rules!), the gentle pulsating guitar rhythm of "The Blizzard", and the swoonworthy, heartbreaking romanticism of "Way Out West" (this one'll put you in ecstasy or tears, or both at once!)...."Tender Foot" is such an awesome instrumental (a short blip, but what a blip!), and their version of "Remember the Alamo" is truly fine. Like "Journey", it's anuthah lullaby!"
