Two favorites on one disc. First time I heard this one was at my only chance to see Sarah Shook live, and the release of this 7" was announced. Sjoerd Groos
There's only one track on this whole album I don't adore. The other nine would be my favorite track on almost any other album they stumbled into. "Years" is like the perfect Best Of album for a band that's been steadily putting out records for decades.

Former member of Fela Kuti’s Egypt 80 unveils a rich, swinging new record that pulls from jazz and soul in its high-wattage songs. Bandcamp New & Notable Apr 24, 2024
So good I've bought it here, on Amazon, and on CD. Saw them live once, when a guitarist was unavailable to tour so they snatched up a member of the Charles Talham band to cover...and they let him jam out, having fully incorporated his funk jazz esque style into their rebel country music. Years into touring, well into a back breaking tour at the truckstops-and-shared-motel-rooms level, and they were still THERE in the moment. Real musicians playing to crowds far smaller than they deserve. burrito741
