A closed circle slowly

This band is not irrepressible. Who had thought after the departure of Marc Olson 1994, the Jayhawks have no chance in the meantime must be taught a lesson. With Marc Olson first went to the country-rock share, however, remained part of the pop ... and is still Gary Louris. The output of the band has become more sparse, but this new album you can really look forward to. Gary Louris, Tim O'Reagan and Marc Perlman did an album in the coordinates Beatles, Byrds and Eagles to do it, which the country rock / pop / folk the Jayhawks before 1994 of all follow-up LPs closest kommt.'Stumbling Through the Dark 'starts kinda like' Mr. Tambourine Man 'by the Byrds,' Tailspin 'then one of the best songs, here too, the Byrds are more than godfather. So it goes Song for song, time, references indicate the Beatles, sometimes you can hear the magnificent Eagles harmonies out. 'Save it for a Rainy Day' sounds like an outtake from her masterpiece HOLLYWOOD TOWN HALL.
