Salvation Alley String Band

Waltzing Alone

(Rub Wrongways Records)



The sole reason the title cut - in whose 1:46 oom-pahs and Country swayings collude - doesn't stand out, is because it's surrounded by leather-tooled richness of equal distinction. There's home-folks gusto at hand, as well as enough sensitivity to put tears in a cowpoke's eyes. 

Recommended: "Half of All Weddings," "Lie to Me," "100 Times a Day," "Earth All Along," "Waltzing Alone," "Half My Heart"
